Textron Aviation to headline Latin American Convention & Exhibition

Textron Aviation, a subsidiary of Textron Aviation Inc., this week announced plans to headline the Latin American Convention & Exhibition (LABACE) in Sao Paulo, Brazil, with its three newest aircraft models.

The three new models include the Citation Latitude, Citation CJ3+ and Beechcraft King Air 250 with Pro Line Fusion avionics system – all of which have been certified in the last year.

“Since our appearance at LABACE last year, we have demonstrated our leadership in certifying and bringing new products to market, which is evidenced by the debut this year of the Citation Latitude, Citation CJ3+ and Beechcraft King Air 250 with Pro Line Fusion,” Bob Gibbs, vice president of sales for Latin America and the Caribbean, said. “With the breadth of the product portfolio offered by Textron Aviation, operators throughout the region can be assured that virtually any mission need can be satisfied by Beechcraft or Cessna products.”

The Citation Latitude has a range of 2,850 nautical miles and boasts exceptional mission capability. The Latitude’s flat floor and 6 feet of cabin height affords the most open, spacious, bright and refined cabin environment in the midsize category.

The CJ3+ is one of five new Citations to be introduced into the market in the last two years, contributing to Cessna’s strong business jet investment and delivery performance.

The Beechcraft King Air 250 is equipped with the new Pro Line Fusion avionics system and cabin upgrades.
