The Citation X held the title of fastest civilian aircraft for years at Mach 0.935 — just shy of the sound barrier. It's the jet you charter when time literally is money.

Fun fact

The Citation X was briefly the fastest non-supersonic civilian aircraft, cruising at 700 mph.

How to spot one

Swept-back wing more than any other Citation. T-tail. Was the world's fastest civilian aircraft. Long, sleek fuselage.
