Since the Latitude’s market launch in 2015, more
than 124 of the type have entered service with a
broad spectrum of fleet, corporate and specialmission
operators.
The cabin was designed to be open, spacious
and refined, featuring a flat floor and 6ft (1.83m)
height. In fact, the Latitude has the same
standard nine-seat layout
as the XLS+, but bigger cabin dimensions.
Textron Aviation’s wireless system
and onboard media server provide
connectivity, entertainment and CMS
features to each passenger through
their iOS or Android PEDs, including
wireless control of the lighting,
temperature and stereo system;
moving maps; music and video
streaming; and domestic (US)
internet service. A 17in (43.2cm)
cabin display and four-channel
XM radio also come as standard.
Other standard features include dedicated
beverage storage and an externally serviceable
lavatory. The lavatory compartment also features
a large vanity surface that can be configured with
multiple storage areas, with up to 245 lb (111kg)
of capacity. The seats have all the standard
features of those on the XLS+,
but with added USB ports.
Optional extras on the Latitude include
international connectivity, universal outlets at
all pedestal seats, high-amp electrical outlets,
a microwave oven, a second hot beverage
container and custom glassware storage.
Customers can replace the two-place couch with
a forward single side-facing seat and a large
refreshment centre on the right-hand side.
The Latitude also features new cabin cooling
and pressurization systems. The latter provides
a 5,950ft (1,814m) cabin altitude at 45,000ft
(13,716m), the aircraft’s maximum operating
altitude.
