Cessna is always delayed.
Abu Dhabi Started in July.
The first 300 is beginning acceptance next week.
Long range a/c are still being evaluated.

On a different note, I did hear the X's are slightly delayed for delivery. That should be resolved soon I would imagine - Cessna would not want to lose that deal. Also, they are probably very busy starting up their international Abu Dhabi base which according to the articles, is supposed to open up in the next few months. Add to that, the fact they are slated to take delivery of their CL300 fleet 3rd Qtr AND evaluating long range aircraft for their international expansion plans. Seems like a bunch of stuff going on at one time which I suspect keeps them busy. Hopefully a XO pilot can chime in.

Is (are) the type(s) of "long range" aircraft being evaluated still being kept under wraps?

Yeah Kind of...

We know what to expect, maybe. Answer for sure in less than 6 months. Thats all I'm saying, I'm a "F-N-G" in training.

Yeah you could, but I can't help you either way for months and months. Besides, I have a couple of really good friends that I am going to try to recommend. You wouldn't believe how many PM's you get. I can't recommend anyone for many months... Sorry man

No worries man - not looking for a recommendation but rather more like application 'how to' information. I'm about a month out from starting to send out my apps and XOjet is high on my list!

Yeah man, didn't know thats all you wanted. I would be more than happy to answer all the questions you have. You would be shocked how many "friends" come out of the woodwork when you get a good job, or how many people PM you and strait up ask for a recommendation. Some people...
