Uncovering the Innovative Power of the Cessna Citation 501: A Look at the First Light Corporate Jet from Cessna

The Cessna Citation 501 (also known as the Model 500 series) is one of the first light corporate jets ever produced by Cessna. The Citation 501 was introduced in 1971 and was the first in a long line of Citation aircraft from Cessna. The Citation 501 was designed to provide a high-performance and low-cost alternative to the much larger business jets of the day. The Citation 501 was designed to be economical and efficient, and was the first aircraft of its kind to be certified by the FAA as a "small" jet.

Cessna designed the Citation 501 to meet the needs of business executives who wanted an aircraft that could fly faster and farther than a piston-powered airplane, but without the expense and complexity of a larger business jet. The Citation 501 was also designed to be easy to maintain and operate, making it a popular choice for business people who wanted the convenience and performance of a jet but didn't want to deal with the expense and complexity of a larger jet.

The Citation 501 is powered by two Pratt & Whitney JT15D-1 turbofan engines, each capable of producing 2,500 lbs of thrust. The engines are incredibly reliable and efficient, enabling the Citation 501 to reach maximum cruise speeds of up to 459 knots and a maximum range of 1,743 nautical miles.

The Citation 501 is an incredibly popular aircraft, with over 1,200 being produced between 1971 and 2016. The Citation 501 is also incredibly reliable, with an average time between overhaul of 3,500 hours.

Despite its popularity, the Citation 501 has faced some safety issues over its lifetime. In 2008, the FAA issued an airworthiness directive requiring all Citation 501's to be fitted with an upgraded autopilot system. This was due to several incidents where the autopilot system malfunctioned and resulted in the loss of control of the aircraft. Additionally, the Citation 501 has been involved in several fatal accidents due to pilot error and maintenance issues.

Despite its safety issues, the Citation 501 has been a groundbreaking aircraft for Cessna. It has been the benchmark for many of the innovations that have been incorporated into later Citation models, such as the Citation V and Citation X. The Citation 501 was the first to feature a pressurized cabin, a fully integrated autopilot system, and an all-glass cockpit.

The Citation 501 is an incredibly popular and reliable aircraft, and is still in use today by corporate and recreational pilots. It has proven to be a reliable and efficient platform for business aviation, and has set the standard for light corporate jets. The Citation 501 has revolutionized the way business people can travel, and its innovations have been incorporated into many of the models that have followed it.

The first Cessna business jet was a six seater designed to operate from shorter airfields that were usually populated by light-to-medium twin turboprops. A FanJet 500 prototype flew in September 1969, and there followed a number of design changes before the aircraft received FAA certification two years later on 9 September 1971, certificate A22CE. Renamed the Cessna 500 Citation business jet, it now had a longer forward fuselage, repositioned engine nacelles, a larger tail and added dihedral to the horizontal tail.

Textron made the first delivery in January 1972. It was the first business jet to feature a fan jet engine, and Textron claimed it set new standards in economy, ease of operation and low noise levels, referring to it as the ‘sensible Citation’.

The Citation was powered by two Pratt & Whitney JT15D-1 turbofan engines and these, along with straight rather than swept wings, made it cruise more slowly than other business jets. Thus it earned the nicknames Slowtation and Nearjet; vulnerable to bird strikes from the rear.

In early 1976, its wing span was increased from 43.9 to 47.1 ft. It also gained thrust reversers and higher gross weights.

Production ended in 1985.

Flying a Cessna Citation

On Sunday, July 1, 2018, I had the opportunity to fly with a friend in his Single-Pilot (SP) Cessna Citation, a CE-501 , from where it is based, at John Wayne Airport (KSNA) to San Jose, CA (KSJC), and back. It was a beautiful day to fly in Southern California. Though it was warmer than normal, with the OAT being ISA + 20 during climb and cruise. We were ‘in between’ weather systems, meaning there was no significant weather to deal with. There was almost no wind at altitude. Our TAS (True Airspeed) and GS (Ground Speed) were almost the same. The CE-501 is almost identical to the CE-500 except that it is certified under FAR 23 (Normal Category) instead of the more restrictive FAR 25, Transport Category. The takeoff weight is limited to 12,500#.

As it is a Citation, all of the jokes about performance are true (bird strikes from the rear). It is slower in the climb and cruise, as well as on descent. But then the engines only produce 2,200# of thrust. And on a hot day they produce even less thrust, just like any jet. How many times did SoCal TRACON advise us to ‘resume normal climb speed’, and we had to respond, ‘we already are’. We were not even able to go 200 knots. Our climb speed was 180 knots initially and gradually slowed to about 160 knots from there. We were already doing the best we could. And again, on descent, we were told to ‘not exceed 250 knots’. We replied that that would not  be a problem.

It is a very easy jet to fly the  Cessna Citation , as most Citations are. They were originally designed for the owner/operator who was stepping up from a piston-twin Cessna. The panel arrangement is typically Cessna, and appropriate changes were made when the Citation line was designed.

On the way back, I took over on the descent at 29,000’, disconnecting the auto-pilot and hand flying. It was wonderful!!! It is a very easy jet to fly. And FUN!! The flight controls have a very solid feel. They are not hydraulically assisted. They are purely mechanical, via control cables. Designed to be that way.

As we got closer to John Wayne Airport, I was relishing the flying!! It was SO MUCH FUN!! It’s a hands-on, kinesthetic thing with me!! I’m a ‘hands on’ guy. Making many small adjustments with the controls (pitch, bank and power) to maintain the proper speed, heading and altitude, as SoCal TRACON vectored us towards a Visual Approach to Runway 20R at KSNA. Using sight, sounds and the ‘kinesthetic’ connection. So important. The ‘man-machine’ connection. My ‘stabilized’ approach and landing turned out very nicely!! Wow!! Right on the correct approach speed (Vref +10 in a jet), and so forth. Very rewarding to me. I don’t get to fly in a real airplane nearly often enough. So, I look forward to every opportunity to fly. Even as this summer marks 40 years of flying for me, I’m still not jaded! I hope to keep it that way.

My friend even complimented me on how nicely my landing turned out. I realized a few minutes after we shut down, this was my first landing in a jet! Though I have done many in the simulator, it was uneventful, the result of much practice!  I’ve flown many turbo-prop aircraft and have done this many time in a flight simulator, but this was the first-time landing in a jet. I was just relishing the feeling — a feeling of deep satisfaction for a job well done!!

He has owned the Cessna Citation for about two years now, and in that time has had some work done on the jet. He has upgraded some, but not all of the avionics. It is a work in progress. As a result, the panel is sort of a hybrid combination of new and old. And it still has some work that needs to be done. That’s all part of the process.

Aside from that, it was an enjoyable flight up and back! My friend typically flies single pilot, so is not used to having a qualified pilot/instructor in the right seat. He was very competent throughout, and there were no problems. He pointed out to me some of the issues that he is working to resolve on his  Cessna Citation especially concerning the avionics. He does not fly often, so he is wise to train on a regular basis, returning almost monthly for additional simulator time to stay proficient and review emergency and abnormal scenarios in the simulator.

Until the next time,

Blue skies!

Built in 2018 by Aeronautical Systems Engineering, our FAA Qualified Level D Full Flight Simulator is equipped with the Honeywell Primus 1000 Avionics. 

Cessna Citation I (CE-500)

The Cessna 500 Citation I saw early success in the small business jet market. As the Fanjet 500 prototype was upgraded in 1976, the Citation I was introduced with higher gross weights, Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-1A turbofan engines and increased wing span wing.

Delivered in early 1977, the Cessna 501 Citation I/SP was certificated for single pilot operations allowing for lower per-mile operating costs comparably to contemporary models.

The Cessna Citation I is still a staple in the business jet market that services worldwide operations.

Citation ISP Operating Costs

Annual Budget

The total annual budget for flying a Citation ISP private jet 200 hours per year is approximately $829,803 or $1,353,213 for flying 400 hours per year. The maximum speed of the Citation ISP is 402 mph, but with slower climb, cruise and descending speeds it is more likely to average 322 mph which would equate to an average cost per mile of approximately $12.90 at 200 hours per year. If you fly 400 hours per year, you can spread the total fixed costs over more flight hours which reduces your cost per mile to $10.52.

These budgets do not include the cost to purchase the jet, depreciation or the cost of capital (interest payments.)

Does the Citation ISP (CE501) require a Single Pilot Exemption/Waiver?

• Thread starter Toby Rice
• Start date Apr 17, 2023

Filing Flight Plan

• Apr 17, 2023

Hi all, I’ve sought much advice but have found little success. I’ll ask here. It’s on the Citation ISP (CE501). I am PIC typed rated in the CE500 series. I took the check ride in a CE550 simulator. I don’t have 500 hours turbine time. I need to know if I can fly the CE501 right now without any additional requirements by the FAA. Insurance and I have already hashed it out, so disregard that aspect. We’re talking FAA-only. The FSB report for the 501 says that if you take the check ride in a 501/551 as a single pilot, you can fly them single pilot. But if you take the check ride in a 501/551 with a copilot, your certificate will say “SIC required.” I took the check ride in a 550 simulator. I don’t have any SIC limits on my certificate. My client has a CE501, which says in the TCDS that it requires one pilot plus certain equipment, or two pilots. Can I fly the CE501 (Citation 1SP) single pilot without a waiver or exemption right now with my clean CE500 type rating? There are two posts already up that talks about this. You can find them under these titles: CE-500 Single Pilot Waiver vs. CE-525S Single Pilot experience requirements CE-501SP Single-pilot rules and confusion

@kayoh190 @RudyP Oh, and welcome to PoA!  

Plano Pilot

Line up and wait.

The CE-500 type rating privileges is confusing. My understanding is If you took your checkride with two pilots you cannot fly a 500/551 single pilot. You would need another check, with an examiner I believe, to demonstrate that you can fly it SP. After that ride you should get a logbook entry stating, "I certify soandso on ##/##/### in accordance with FAR 61.43(b)(2) has successfully Demonstrated their ability to act as a Pilot in Command, Single Pilot in the Cessna Citation CE-501/551." That is what mine says, and it is only good for 1 year. The reason you do not have SIC required is because you took your type ride in a 550 which is a two pilot airplane. "(b) An applicant who satisfactorily accomplishes a CE-500 pilot type rating practical test in a Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560, as appropriate, and uses the services of an SIC pilot crewmember, will be issued a CE-500 pilot type rating. The examiner will record the results of the practical test in the applicant’s logbook as “Satisfactorily accomplished the CE-500 pilot type rating with an SIC crewmember in a [Cessna 500] [Cessna 550] [Cessna S550] [Cessna 552] [Cessna 560].” Since the Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, and Cessna 560 type certifications require an SIC crewmember, the applicant’s pilot certificate and CE-500 airplane type rating need not contain the limitation “Second-in-Command Required.”" From 8900.2C -General Aviation Airman Designee Handbook (faa.gov) Citation info starts on PDF page 200. I got my CE500 type in 1985 plus I have held the single pilot exemption for the last 15 years. After flying them for 20 years I am still learning about the type's privileges. Hope this helps.

FWIW, I took my CE-500 type ride in a CE-550 sim with a copilot and my certificate says “SIC Required”. I cannot fly the 500/501 single pilot unless I retake the checkride single pilot. Even though those models are certified single pilot. If my cert didn’t say SIC required, then I would also have to comply with the plane requirements (like operable auto pilot, boom mic, etc). How long ago did you earn your initial? Have you done annual recurrent?

@texasclouds I’m fresh out of school. Got the type two days ago. We could argue why I shouldn’t be flying single pilot with an rating that so new, but by the time insurance will approve, I’m going to have 50-100 hours in the 501 with an instructor anyway, so our bases will be covered there. That’s weird about the “SIC required” on your certificate. I took my check ride in a CE550 simulator with a copilot and I have no such limitation. The only thing is has is the SOE requirement for 25 hours. It seems that everyone, the FAA and training centers and DPEs included, really have no idea how this works! Your certificate says one thing… mine says another… his says another… ??? One of the TCEs at the training center says I can fly it single pilot right now because it’s a part 23 airplane and doesn’t require two pilots. Now given that the 501 is certified for single-pilot, I understand that I “might” need a 61.43(b)(2) endorsement and a flight check in the 501 to fly it single pilot, but will I need the entire 500 hours turbine time? Again, I’m not even sure that I need the 61.43 check ride, but so far that seems to be a good move to “cover my rear end” if I get ramp checked. @Plano Pilot I definitely don’t have “SIC required” on my ticket. It’s odd that @texasclouds has the limitation even though we tested in an identical environment… The 61.43 endorsement makes sense, but it that the same legalese as the single pilot waiver/exemption? (500 hours turbine, etc.) Additionally, my TCE did not jot down that I “Satisfactorily accomplished the CE-500 pilot type rating with an SIC crewmember in a Cessna 550.” Needless to say, I am confused at a higher level. Any thoughts? I greatly appreciate BOTH of you for responding!  

Post a picture of your certificate, after cropping out the personal details.  

Touchdown! Greaser!

The Single Pilot Exemption is for CE500's that requires two pilots, not for 501/551's. I did find this Q&A from 2000: "QUESTION 1: As per §61.43(b), our read on this new rule would allow somebody to qualify in a Cessna 500 or 550 for a CE-500 type rating and then operate a Cessna 501 or 551 as a PIC FAQs Part 61 With Chg #11, 04/27/2000 All Q&A’s from #1 through #374 41 without an SIC. As you know the Cessna 500 and 550 are airplanes that require an SIC and the Cessna 501 and 551 do not require an SIC. However, it is possible for a person to take his checkride in a Cessna 500 or 550 and never have demonstrated PIC proficiency without having an SIC on board. But because the Cessna 500, 501, 550, and 551 all have the same "CE-500" type rating on a person's pilot certificate, it is possible for that same person to take his practical test in a Cessna 500 or 550 and then be legal to serve as a PIC on a Cessna 501 and 551 without an SIC. ANSWER 1: The new §61.43(b) neither added to or subtracted from the possibility of this happening. In a review of this issue, we agree that the possibility of this happening is possible, but as it has always been said ALL the rules in the world will not prevent stupidity. However, to date this office is not aware of any cases where persons who qualified in a Cessna 500 or 550 are operating Cessna 501's and 551's as a PIC in solo flight. Do you know of any such cases where this is occurring or has occurred?" From pages 40 and 41 of FAQsPT61.PDF (cfimichael.com)  

Also, forgive me if my reading comprehension is lacking, but it sounds like you may be a greenhorn. A greenhorn flying this plane SP is a great way to turn into a smoking hole, become an NTSB report, and fly west. Nice knowing you.

@RussR you never know. When I got out of the CE500's in the 80's I did not think I would fly them again. Early 2007 I took this job, flying an Ultra, now at age 61 it has turned into a nice simi-retirement job.

RussR said: I am in exactly the same situation. From my reading of the 8900.2C, which @Plano Pilot provided an excerpt of, I think it's pretty clear the training center where I did my type rating put the "SIC Required" on there in error. I asked the FSDO if they could fix it, but they said I had to take it up with the training center. I'm going to be down there for recurrent on another airframe in a couple of weeks anyway, so I'll ask then. Click to expand...

Final Approach

Well, I’m super confused. Have a CE-500 type, done with an SIC. No “SIC required” restriction. Only Citation 500 series I’ve flown is the 550, (also typed in 560XL, 680, 750) which I understand needs a waiver for single pilot. I have no clue. Only saving grace is I now fly an Airbus.

Toby Rice said: The 501 is a single pilot airplane. If you have the type rating and the equipment, you’re golden. Click to expand...

dtuuri said: I don't think that's correct. I have a C-500 type rating with no "SIC required" limitation, but I don't think I'm allowed to fly any single pilot Citation unless I demonstrate I can do it without a second in command. Pretty sure the FAA needs to see you do the entire type ride without help from an SIC. Anything less than that would be an FAA I'm not familiar with. Click to expand...

Minimum Crew for all flights: one pilot plus equipment specified in the Airplane Flight Manual, or two pilots. Click to expand...

Minimum crew for all flights: two pilots. Click to expand...

Toby Rice said: The 501 requires one pilot, only ever requiring two if the airplane doesn’t have the correct equipment on board, per the TCDS. Click to expand...

MauleSkinner said: What about the “SIC REQUIRED” Limitation that may be placed on a 500 type rating? Click to expand...

Toby Rice said: That limitation should only exist on certificates where the applicant took the check ride in a single-pilot airplane (501/551) but used an SIC on the test, which is optional. Click to expand...

MauleSkinner said: Do you have documentation to that effect? Click to expand...

Toby Rice said: I see your point, absolutely. If your certificate says “SIC required,” then it’s required. But in all other cases, an SIC is NOT required to fly SP in a 501/551 that is properly equipped. Click to expand...

Toby Rice said: After researching the rules contained in Part 91 concerning when an SIC is required, the TCDS for the CE501/551, the FSB report, and the rules for the single pilot exemption… The answer is that anyone with a CE500 type rating without “SIC required” does not need any exemption to fly the 501 SP because the exemption only applies to the non-SP models. The 501 is a single pilot airplane. If you have the type rating and the equipment, you’re golden. Please don’t use this as a means to go kill yourself in a SP jet without experience.

MauleSkinner said: So, no, you don’t have documentation to that effect? Click to expand...

Plano Pilot said: When I go to recurrent, I leave with my new exemption, 61.58 signoff and they ask me if I want a FAR 61.43(b)(2) signoff so that I can fly a 501 or 551 single pilot. Click to expand...

(b) The pilot flight crew complement required during the practical test is based on one of the following requirements that applies to the aircraft being used on the practical test : (2) If the aircraft's type certification data sheet requires the pilot flight crew complement be a single pilot, then the applicant must demonstrate single pilot proficiency on the practical test.

7.1.1 Pilot Type Rating. Practical tests conducted in Textron Models 500, 550, S550, 552, and 560 are required to be conducted with two pilots and satisfactory completion will result in a CE-500 pilot type rating on the pilots temporary airmen certificate, with the limitation “CE-500 Second in Command Required.” Click to expand...

Kritchlow said: I worded that poorly. I’m not going to edit, as I’m at the bar. Too much cognizance needed to edit while getting liquored up. Click to expand...

MauleSkinner said: You mean this? Those don’t look like 501 or 551, and it says the SIC Required Limitation will be put on the certificate. Click to expand...

• 7.1.1 Pilot Type Rating-Practical Test as Single Pilot Model 501/551. An applicant who satisfactorily completes a practical test as a single pilot in Model 501 or 551 will be issued a CE-500 pilot type rating.
• 7.1.2 Pilot Type Rating-Practical Test with Two Pilots Model 501/551. An applicant who satisfactorily completes a practical test utilizing a second in command (SIC) in Model 501/551 will be issued a CE-500 pilot type rating with a Limitation, "CE-500 Second in Command Required."

(b) An applicant who satisfactorily accomplishes a CE-500 pilot type rating practical test in a Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560, as appropriate, and uses the services of an SIC pilot crewmember, will be issued a CE-500 pilot type rating. The examiner will record the results of the practical test in the applicant's logbook as "Satisfactorily accomplished the CE-500 pilot type rating with an SIC crewmember in a [Cessna 500] [Cessna 550] [Cessna S550] [Cessna 552] [Cessna 560]." Since the Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, and Cessna 560 type certifications require an SIC crewmember, the applicant's pilot certificate and CE-500 airplane type rating need not contain the limitation "Second-in-Command Required." Note: The successful completion of a certification practical test in any of the Cessna 500 models listed in subparagraph 77b will qualify the applicant for a CE-500 pilot type rating.

(2) Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560. An applicant for a “CE-500” pilot type rating who accomplishes the practical test in a Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560, as appropriate, may elect to accomplish the practical test as a single pilot if the person accomplished an approved single-pilot training program that was given by a training provider under a grant of exemption. The applicant may instead use the services of an SIC pilot crewmember. Click to expand...

(2) Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560. An applicant for a "CE-500” pilot type rating who accomplishes the practical test in a Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560, as appropriate, may elect to accomplish the practical test as a single pilot if the person accomplished an approved single-pilot training program that was given by a training provider under a grant of exemption. The applicant may instead use the services of an SIC pilot crewmember. (a) An applicant who satisfactorily accomplishes an approved single-pilot training course, successfully completes the CE-500 pilot type rating practical test in the Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560 as a single pilot, and uses a training provider who holds a grant of exemption from § 91.531 may operate as a single-pilot PIC in the Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560, as appropriate. The examiner will issue the CE-500 pilot type rating on the applicant's pilot certificate. The examiner will record the results of the practical test in the pilot's logbook as "Satisfactorily accomplished the CE-500 pilot type rating training as a single pilot in an [appropriate Cessna model]." The applicant must receive a CO letter for single-pilot operations from the training provider. In accordance with the training provider's grant of exemption, the pilot is also required to continue to receive the training provider's recurrent single-pilot training and comply with the provisions of that training provider's grant of exemption every 12 calendar-months to be reissued a COA letter for single-pilot operations. ( b) An applicant who satisfactorily accomplishes a CE-500 pilot type rating practical test in a Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, or Cessna 560, as appropriate, and uses the services of an SIC pilot crewmember, will be issued a CE-500 pilot type rating. The examiner will record the results of the practical test in the applicant's logbook as "Satisfactorily accomplished the CE-500 pilot type rating with an SIC crewmember in a [Cessna 500] [Cessna 550] [Cessna S550] [Cessna 552] [Cessna 560]." Since the Cessna 500, Cessna 550, Cessna S550, Cessna 552, and Cessna 560 type certifications require an SIC crewmember, the applicant's pilot certificate and CE-500 airplane type rating need not contain the limitation "Second-in-Command Required."
