There's a reason why the Cessna Citation Excel is in demand on the current used mid-sized business jet market. It's reliable, has good performance and a comfortable cabin. But many aging Excels are in need of avionics, interior and paint upgrades.

The company was showing a newly refurbished Excel at the 2021 NBAA-BACE convention in Las Vegas, and Aviation Consumer Editor Larry Anglisano sat down with Gary Hay for an overview.
