FAQ
Citation Bravo questions
How much does a Citation Bravo cost?
Radar's rough range is about $1.9M to $4.3M for a 2006 and $940K to $2.1M for a 1997. From Radar's listing-based estimates for business jets of similar engine thrust and age. These are rough ranges, not appraisals: hours, engines, damage history, equipment and the logbooks move the price of any one aircraft.
What affects the price of a Citation Bravo?
What moves the price of any one Citation Bravo: total time and engine time, engine program enrollment, damage history, avionics and equipment, and complete logbooks. Build year sets the baseline shown on this page; a Citation Bravo with high hours, an engine near overhaul or gaps in its records sells below it, and one with low time, recent inspections and full records above it.
Where can I find a Citation Bravo for sale?
Radar does not list aircraft for sale. It tracks all 218 US-registered Citation Bravos by tail number, each with its registration record and a value estimate, so you can check a listing against the value of its build year and look up the aircraft's own history before you call.
How many Citation Bravos are there?
218 Citation Bravos are on the US civil aircraft register (FAA file of October 2026), built 1997 to 2006. Aircraft registered in other countries are not counted. Radar has a page for each US registration.
What are the Citation Bravo's specs?
As published: a range of 1,500 nm (1,726 statute miles), a high-speed cruise of 402 ktas (463 mph), a ceiling of 45,000 ft, a fuel burn of 1,123 lb/hr (165 US gal/hr), a cabin 4 ft 9 in high, 4 ft 10 in wide and 2 × Pratt & Whitney Canada PW530A engines. A given aircraft varies with its completion, weight and modifications.
How far can a Citation Bravo fly?
The Citation Bravo's published range is 1,500 nautical miles (1,726 statute miles), with published maximum-fuel reference range. Associated manufacturer performance charts use high-speed cruise, NBAA IFR reserves with a 200-nm alternate, zero wind and ISA conditions. Actual range varies with payload and conditions.. Winds, payload, cruise speed and the reserves a flight carries change what a given trip can do.
Can a Citation Bravo cross the Atlantic?
Not nonstop between New York and London: that is about 2,986 nm, against a published range of 1,500 nm. Aircraft with less range than the crossing make it in legs, with fuel stops in Canada, Greenland and Iceland.
Can a Citation Bravo fly to Hawaii?
Not nonstop. Los Angeles to Honolulu is about 2,217 nm over open water, more than the Citation Bravo's published range of 1,500 nm.
How fast is the Citation Bravo?
The Citation Bravo cruises at up to 402 knots true airspeed (about 463 mph), and its maximum operating Mach number is 0.7, as published.
How much fuel does a Citation Bravo burn per hour?
1,123 lb/hr (165 US gal/hr), as Cessna publishes it (maximum cruise thrust, FL350, 11,000 lb, 403 KTAS (Cessna Bravo performance table)). Block fuel for a real trip is higher: taxi, climb, weight, altitude and winds all add to it.
How high can a Citation Bravo fly?
The Citation Bravo is certified to 45,000 feet. Heavy aircraft climb there in steps as they burn fuel.
How big is the Citation Bravo cabin?
4 ft 9 in high and 4 ft 10 in wide, 15 ft 8 in long, as published.
