The Cessna Citation Mustang, Model 510, is a very light jet (VLJ) business aircraft built by Cessna Aircraft Company at their Independence, Kansas production facility. Like most other light jets, the Mustang is approved for single-pilot operation. The Model 510 Mustang first flew on April 18, 2005. The airplane received full type certification from the Federal Aviation Administration on September 8, 2006 and was first delivered two months later. The Citation Mustang is powered by two P&WC PW615F turbofans with 1,460 pounds of thrust. It was designed with aluminum alloy construction, swept low-wings, T-tail, and retractable tricycle gear. The interior consists of a toilet, two crew seats and up to four passengers seats. Production of the Citation Mustang ended in 2017 due to a significant decrease in customer interest after the production of the Citation M2. A total of 479 aircraft had been built. In 2015, the unit cost of the airplane was $3.35M, and in 2018, it was $1.85-2.5M. Today, the Citation Mustang is most commonly used for business and personal transport, but it is also being operated as an air ambulance and primary jet trainer for civil and airline flight schools. Half of the fleet is owned by the US and Canada, while most of the other half is based in Europe.

- Is the Cessna Citation Mustang a safe aircraft to charter?
- The Cessna Citation Mustang is an FAA-certificated airframe. Safety at the trip level depends on the operator, not the airframe model — every operator on SkyAccess holds an active FAA Part 135 Air Carrier Certificate and many carry additional third-party audits (ARGUS, Wyvern, IS-BAO). Check the operator's profile for their specific certification and audit history.
