The highly popular Cessna 500 Citation and 500 Citation I pioneered the
 entry level light business jet market, and their success formed the
 basis for the world's largest family of corporate jets.

Cessna became the first of the big three American manufacturers (Piper,
 Beech and Cessna) to develop a jet powered transport. In October 1968
 Cessna announced its plans to build a new eight place jet powered
 business aircraft that would be capable of operating into airfields already
 served by light and medium twins. Dubbed the Fanjet 500, the prototype
 flew for the first time on September 15 1969. Soon after the new little
 jet was named the Citation.

A relatively long development program followed, during which time a
 number of key changes were made to the design including a longer forward
 fuselage, repositioned engine nacelles, greater tail area and added
 dihedral to the horizontal tail. In this definitive form the Citation was
 granted FAA certification on September 9 1971.

Improvements including higher gross weights and thrust reversers were
 added to the line in early 1976, followed shortly after by the
 introduction of the enhanced Citation I later that same year. Features of the
 Citation I were higher weights, JT15D-1A engines and an increased span
 wing. A further model to appear was the 501 Citation I/SP, which is
 certificated for single pilot operation. The I/SP was delivered in early
 1977.

Production of the Citation I ceased in 1985, its place in the Citation
 line left vacant until the arrival of the CitationJet (described
 separately) some years later

Aircraft created in GMax. Includes interactive virtual cockpit, full
 moving parts and special animations front cargo and passenger door.
 Custom sound set included.

Notes: 

All the Dynamics where entirely made by Brett Henderson, and much
 advice came from him. He was extremely demanding   (Typical in real Pilots)
 which improves the plane, becoming very realistic..

     

Thanks to Freeflight Design Shop Design Forums and their community (as
 Usual) for their great help & advice.

Specially to Bill Leaning (Fr.Bill) ,who taught me enough to make an
 FSX airplane , his tutorials ,and his teaching for the designers
 community is something that deserve our thanks in the name of all designer's.

And special thanks to Matt Fullick (Expat) who provided me with more
 than 60 real photos of different models of citations among 500/550
 ...they really helped me a lot, and some of the maps are made from his
 photos.

I will appreciate that you not send me any email to critizice my hard
 work. I don't need it and it doesn't do any good. I create an optional
 cockpit without the copilot and the rest of the cabin, because I heard
 some complaits about that it Kills frame rates. It does, in BGl code
 (planes for FS9)..But NOT in FSX XML format. But some others complain that
 they feel creepy with a moving doll next to them. Well, there it is ,
 but the good is in the full VC models..

AND PLEASE THERE ARE 3 SIMICON IN THE VC WICH MAKE THINGS EASIER FOR
 YOU
It will show you the autopilot of the 737 as a window.
 

If you like nice comments are very welcome ..  


Please see the shot, "GENERAL EXTERIOR ANIMATIONS.jpg" be aware of some
 nice new animations..
