From The Archives: Flying The Mustang - Cessna's New Entry-Level Jet

A Cessna Citation Mustang flew over south-central Kansas as photographer Dan Moores captured the jet on film from a Cessna Caravan, and the image appeared on the cover of the April 30, 2007, issue. 

The Cessna Mustang is Cessna Aircraft Co.'s second-generation entry-level jet designed from inception to be flown by one pilot in the IFR environment and in icing conditions. 

The company has orders for more than 250 Mustangs and plans to deliver about 40 this year from its facilities near Independence, Kansas.
