Citation I/SP
The Citation I/SP is a compact jet for short trips with a few passengers and modest baggage. Its passenger space matches the Citation I. The SP designation concerns pilot operation and adds no cabin room.

Why consider this model?
How much space?


People and cabin dimensions share one scale. The cabin outline is illustrative. The layout is an example, not the seat map of the aircraft in your quote.
Room for your luggage
1.13 m³ of baggage space.
* Indicative estimate based on published baggage volume, for medium suitcases around 65 × 45 × 25 cm. Compartment shape, door openings, baggage weight and flight load can reduce the number. We confirm your luggage for the aircraft offered.
Skis, golf bags or extra luggage?
Include the number and dimensions of bulky items in your request. Long items need a separate check.
Aircraft specifications
Planning figure; passenger load, wind, reserves and airfield conditions affect the route.
The model and its relatives
Citation I/SP
The I/SP followed in 1977 with changes that allowed single-pilot operation. A charter flight may still use two pilots depending on the operator and applicable rules.
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
Early business jets were normally flown by a two-person crew. With the I/SP, Cessna adapted its small Citation for qualified owners and operators who wanted the option of one pilot. This required changes to the way the aircraft could be operated, not a new passenger fuselage. The I and I/SP therefore look very similar.

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: 1.43 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 Citation I/SP has the same compact passenger cabin as the Citation I. SP concerns pilot operation, not additional passenger space.
