Textron Offers Financing for Citation Upgrades, Mods

In a bid to increase business for its service network and ease the financial burden of upgrades and refurbishments on customers during the Covid-19 pandemic, Textron Aviation has unveiled an exclusive financing program for certain upgrades and modifications on most U.S.registered Cessna Citations that are performed at one of its 11 service centers in the U.S. The new financing program covers upgrades such as Garmin G5000 avionics or Gogo Avance L5 connectivity.

Officials at Textron Aviation said the company has fielded numerous inquiries from customers looking to update their Citations. “Many of our customers are looking for flexibility in leveraging this unexpected downtime to complete an avionics upgrade, interior refresh, or some other modification they’ve been considering for their aircraft,” said Textron Aviation senior v-p of customer support Brian Rohloff. “By working with Textron Financial Corporation, we quickly developed a new solution to support our customers during a time when efficiency and flexibility are vital.”

The financing is subject to a credit review and approval, Textron Aviation said.
