Is Citation Country
The Cessna Citation range is the most numerous business jet type
registered in Europe, according to statistics supplied by Wichita
Kansas-based AvData. As of March 31, 478 Citations of all models
were registered in the region. Runners-up were Dassault Falcons
(317), Bombardier Learjets (153), BAe/Raytheon Hawkers (106),
Bombardier Challengers (59) and Gulfstreams (57).
Country-wise, AvData's figures show Germany having the largest
business jet fleet and number of jet operators, with 237 and 141
respectively. The UK is very close behind at 229 and 140, followed
by France (204 and 71), EBACE host country Switzerland (135 and
55), and Italy (112 and 59).
AvData's airplane count does not include the many business jets
based in Europe and operated by European companies that are registered
elsewhere, notably in the U.S., Bermuda and the Cayman Islands.
