Just received a notification from Textron that they’ll be announcing a new Citation on February 9th Weird, I haven’t heard a thing. If I were to venture a guess CJ4+ 10am CST https://youtube.com/user/CessnaAircraftCo

That's what I'm thinking, the CJ4 has been out for over 10 years, it's time for an update.

Pic on the event, not much to go on except maybe Textron discovered LEDs can generate light. Attachment: EtjWpEhXUAEumyj.jpeg Maybe this indicates there's not much left to improve on regarding how it actually flies, so we need to change the bling instead. Mike C.

Mike C. Cirrus has been doing that for how many years now? You'll know that Cessna has adopted the Cirrus product improvement playbook if they do switch to a Garmin system, add some minor changes and rebrand it as the CitationDeck (or some other cheeseball name) and pretend it's some amazing improvement over the standard Garmin offering. Extra credit if they add "Plus".

It look like a CJ, so I'm guessing its an updated 4.
Probably Garmin Avionics and ... How many GPS antennas on top? The Fusion panel, is still only one single GPS, isn't it?
