The Citation Ultra is the pinnacle of analog technology. It was made in the era when Gulfstream had been designing and implementing the very first glass cockpits. Cessna had already had Glass designs in the works, but wanted to put out one final analog machine. It turned out to be there highest grossing jet as the pilots and department managers were hesitant about accepting the all glass style.
