Citation Encore+

The Encore+ offers a relatively long light-jet cabin for regional journeys with seven or eight passengers. Separate luggage compartments and a rear lavatory are useful for a group. The Plus improves equipment while retaining the Encore’s narrow, seated-height interior.

Know which model you are choosing

The model and its relatives

Citation Encore+

The Encore+ reached customers in 2007 with electronic engine control and a higher permitted takeoff weight. It completed the Citation V, Ultra and Encore development line.

Citation Bravo

The Bravo provides a seven- or eight-seat light-jet cabin with separate baggage storage. It is a useful regional option when cabin practicality matters more than outright speed.

Citation Ultra

The Ultra combines a relatively long light-jet cabin with good cruise speed. Its narrow aisle and low ceiling remain those of a compact jet, despite the extra seating length.

Model historyWhere it began and how it evolved

The Encore+ was the final major update of Cessna’s Model 560 small-jet line. That line runs through the Citation V, Ultra and Encore; it is separate from the larger Excel and XLS family. The Plus designation marks improvements to engines and operating capability, while its cabin still reflects the proportions of the earlier Encore.

Before you choose

Can I stand upright in the cabin?

The cabin is lower than 180 cm, so a person of that height cannot stand fully upright. The scaled illustration shows the difference. Maximum cabin height: 1.45 m.

Will my aircraft have this exact interior?

Not necessarily. These photographs and the layout illustrate the model. We check the actual interior, seats and equipment when preparing your proposal.

When should I consider this model?

The Encore+ retains the Encore’s long cabin and adds updated engine control and avionics. The Plus designation does not mean a wider or taller passenger compartment.
