The Cessna Citation X is considered as the world's fastest private jet. It is a medium-sized business jet aircraft which the company has designed to be state of the art as well as uniquely designed to fly at high subsonic speeds. In fact, it is the third fastest civil airplane that has ever flown! Thus it is known to be the fastest private jet available in the world today.

One of its key features is that of its incredibly large diameter in regards to the size of the engine intakes. This feature greatly reduces the noise from the engines as well as improves fuel efficiency. The Cessna Citation X is a jet that is powered by that of dual-hydraulic systems. These inclusive powered controls allows for redundancy. The jet also has two elevators and its tail plane is all-moving in order for trim.

All these features allow the Cessna Citation X to climb an amazing 43,000 feet in just 30 minutes at its maximum takeoff weight. In fact, it is certified to fly up to an incredible 51,000 feet. At that height, fuel efficiency is most optimized. Coupled with the fact that not many airplane fly at that height, there is virtually no airline traffic up there.

Not only is the Cessna Citation X one of the most aerodynamically advanced jet designed, it has the most gorgeous and spacious cabin ever created. This jet looks good both on the inside as well as the outside. Citation X also holds the honor of being the first aircraft to use a Rolls-Royce engine as well as fully-integrated avionics. Thus making it in many ways, a breakthrough in aviation and hence a entirely new aircraft.
