Sierra Stallion receives FAA approval

By General Aviation News Staff · September 22, 2006 ·

With the June 14th first flight only nine weeks old, Sierra has received its STC for the Stallion.

A Cessna Citation 500/501SP with more powerful Williams FJ44-2A engines, the Stallion is the latest in Sierra’s Citation product improvement program.

Preceded by innovations such as the Eagle II, the Eagle 400 and Eagle SP, the Stallion enjoys the added power of the FJ44 engine, but retains the thinner, classic wing of the Citation I.

“The Stallion offers the exhilarating performance that comes with a substantial power increase and provides owners with choice when it is time to overhaul engines,” said Mark Huffstutler, Sierra CEO. “We climb the Stallion straight to FL430 at any weight or temperature and cruise 380 knots on 620 pounds per hour for more than 1,400 miles.”
