Reverse Thrust

I have a question that I hope someone will nswer for me. I live beside the runway at a small aerodrome near Hastings N.Z.
Recently a brand new Cessna Citation Mustang has become a resident here, a very nice looking quiet machine. On takeoff it is no noisier than a light twin piston powered craft, and certainly quieter than a turbo-prop. I never hear it land because reverse thrust is never used, the runway here is less than 1300 metres.
My question.
Is reverse thrust not used on this model of aircraft?
