French air charter firm SD Aviation placed an order at Aero Friedrichshafen 2026 for a pair of Cessna Citation M2 Gen3s and a CJ3 Gen2, Textron Aviation announced today. The aircraft operator also signed for options on three additional unspecified light jets.

These Citations will be deployed to support SD Aviation’s new SD Share shared ownership program, offering flights in aircraft based in Paris and Côte d’Azur resort Cannes. The program has been launched through a partnership between Groupe Dubreuil and SD Aviation, which has not disclosed further details of the terms.

Deliveries of the M2 Gen3s and the CJ3 Gen2 are expected to start in 2027. SD Aviation, which is based at La Roche-sur-Yon in the west of France, already offers preferential charter flight terms through its Club Entreprise membership plan.

According to Textron Aviation, the light jets will be suitable for charter flights across Europe, connecting Paris with capital cities such as Lisbon, Athens, and Copenhagen. SD Aviation has operated two Citation M2 twinjets since 2024.
