| Main trade-off | Classic Learjet speed and Part 25 capability at a lower new price, but production ended quickly and professional operating costs remain high. | The Citation XLS Gen2 combines 10-seat jet capability with about 1,490 NM reported range and about 440 kt reported cruise, while payload, runway and operating-cost figures remain indicative and should be verified for the specific aircraft before making a decision. | Fast and efficient with a distinctive cabin, but runway performance and full-seat payload remain limiting. |
