Textron Aviation Leads Industry in Key Aircraft Delivery Segments

Textron Aviation once again led the general aviation industry in several major delivery categories, according to the annual shipments and billings report published by the General Aviation Manufacturers Association. These results underscore the trust customers place in the performance, reliability and mission versatility of the Cessna and Beechcraft brands.

Textron Aviation topped the industry in:

• Total business jet deliveries

• Total turbine aircraft deliveries

• Total turboprop deliveries

Several of the company’s iconic product lines also continued their long-standing market leadership:

• The Cessna Citation Latitude remained the most delivered midsize business jet for 10 years
• The Cessna Caravan family again ranked as the most delivered utility turboprop lineup
• The Beechcraft King Air continued its legacy as the most delivered twin-engine turboprop

Customers rely on Cessna and Beechcraft products for a wide range of missions around the world, from business travel and cargo transport to humanitarian relief, training and special mission operations.

The strength of the Cessna and Beechcraft brands is a testament to decades of engineering advancements and to the operators who fly them every day. Textron Aviation continues to invest in new technologies, manufacturing excellence and global customer support to design and deliver the best aviation experience for customers. In 2025, the company celebrated four different FAA certifications across the iconic Cessna Citation line, including the M2 Gen2 with autothrottles, CJ3 Gen2, Citation Ascend and the Citation Latitude enhanced avionics.

With the support of Cessna and Beechcraft owners and operators, the company remains committed to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and inspiring the next generation of pilots, engineers and aviation enthusiasts.
