I will agree that the $22M is pretty accurate…close enough to count anyway.
When I was at the NBAA this year Cessna had their plans and a cabin mock-up laid out on a new design they are planning to build…It is basically going to be a widebody Citation X with all the neat amenities ( dual galleys,nice entertainment systems,large baggage area,etc.) My favorite part is the step-down cockpit..kinda like the Boeing 757…anyway…good luck on your pursuit to whatever it is you are doing…

http://www.cessna.com is a wonderful source…. Look for a place to contact them and get a "information booklet" on the various citation models…also you might want to see if Learjet is less or more expensive & used ones as well are good options just have them checked out… good magazines for used a/c are: Controller, Buisness Aircraft
good luck

Controller.com has one listed as follows..
2009 CESSNA CITATION XLS+
US $12,995,000

the price is determined with respect to interior appointments, avionics, and other optional equipment. Thus, final aircraft prices often vary according to the type and number of options chosen.

Fractional operations under Part 91k do not allow for student training, only in-house training. The $22m USD figure is about right, perhaps a bit low. The info is available elsewhere. I have flown the Sovereign, the model right below the X in the current product line. A new Large Cabin Citation is being formally announced very shortly, but it will be years to production.

Good choice a Citation X is an excellent aircraft to look into buying but yet they are expensive.I used to train in a Citation X because my instructor owned a fraction of one like the other person above said. They fly through every cloud very smoothly.But like the other commenter said they do cost a good deal of money even to buy a fraction, so you would be having to look into one with a bit of people owning shares.That is only if you are limited to a budget.Don't be discouraged by what i've said, you can buy one without shares.It's a lot more fun having the whole plane to yourself

Do you want to buy it outright? Why not lease it? Buy a share of a fractional aircraft?
