I can speak from personal experience. The Bravo is a dream to fly, and to fly on. The CE-560 series (V, Ultra, Encore) is a true 6 to 7 person airplane. The CE-550 (II, Bravo) is configured to seat 6 or 7 passengers (depending on configuration), and is extremely cramped. The CE-560 has many benefits that the CE-550 does not. It sports a higher useful load as well as a range approximately 200sm (plus) greater then the CE-550. The CE-560 cruises 20-30 knots faster then the CE-550. The variable and fixed operating costs are nearly identical between the two series, due to the fact that most, if not all parts, and maintenance programs are the same (except for the engines, as they are more expensive to purchase initially on the CE-560). Both aircraft perform very well in high, hot, and short field conditions. All in all, she’s a great plane. Your boss is making a great decision.
What type of flying does your boss want to do with the plane?
