Bikini Jet (Istanbul Atatürk) has added its first Citation Jet 3+, ch-aviation research reveals.
TC-EDD (msn 525B-0731) is a 2024-built jet, delivered directly from the production facilities of Textron Aviation at Wichita Eisenhower to Istanbul Atatürk between October 18 and 19, 2024. The delivery route included stops at Toronto Pearson, Goose Bay, Reykjavik Keflavik, and Prague Václav Havel. The aircraft has remained parked since then.
This Citation Jet 3+ joins another Citation-series aircraft, a Citation Latitude, in Bikini Jet's fleet, operating alongside a Global Express and a Legacy 650. In 2024, the company phased out its only Global 5000.
