Merger proposal edit

I propose that this article be merged into the CitationJet article. This aircraft is very little different from the other variants already covered in Cessna CitationJet#VariantsPetebutt (talk) 14:42, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

  1. support. Went to this talk page to propose this merge. Same type certificate. Title would be a little bit difficult : CitationJet/M2 or model 525 (which would be surprising for the reader who only know marketing names)?. --Marc Lacoste (talk) 10:27, 24 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose - The CJ article already covers 4 variants plus more sub-variants. Adding another one that's marketed differently would just be confusing. If I recall correctly, the M2 is intended as a step up from the Mustang, and really isn't considered part of the CJ family by Cessna. As Marc points out, the title would also be an issue, which we avoid by keeping them separate. - BilCat (talk) 21:13, 24 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Support - I have worked on the 525 series including the M2, and the M2 is a Model 525, just the latest variant of the Model 525 CitationJet/CJ/CJ1/CJ1+ family, perhaps Cessna felt they couldn't call it the CJ1++. There is no more difference between the CJ and the M2 than there is between a Beechcraft C90 King Air and a C90GTx King Air (which is just a marketing name for a C90GTi anyway); and there is less difference between the CJ and the M2 than there is between a Beechcraft 55 Baron and a G58 Baron, or between a Cessna 310B and a 310R. It does have fancy wingtips though - oh wait, so do later models of the Airbus A300 and A310. YSSYguy (talk) 00:02, 28 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Support - The M2 shares the same airframe design of the CJ. The M2 dose have upgraded engines, interior and avionics with wingtip “swooplets” added, but is really just a freshened up 525/CJ. Samf4u (talk) 13:19, 29 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
