Model & Market Context
This entry documents airframe N1027J, a 2001-built example of the Cessna Citation Encore family, serial number 560-0564. The airframe was manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation) and is currently registered in the United States to MAGIC CARPET LLC, an LLC based in Wilmington, DE, US. The airframe’s paperwork and registry history reflect routine private corporate operation; no public incident history is published in these data. Recent valuation places the aircraft at $3,400,000, indicating a market position consistent with early-2000s Citation Encore examples in operated condition.
The configured cabin on 560-0564 supports an executive 7–11 passenger layout with a typical forward galley, mid-cabin club seating and a belted aft lavatory, though final arrangement may vary by serial. Avionics common to Encore examples on this airframe include the Honeywell Primus 1000 IFCS fit, which supports the type’s conventional corporate IFR operations and common charter profiles. Operating as a fixed-wing multi-engine corporate transport under US registration, the aircraft’s mission set typically encompasses short- to medium-range business travel, regional repositioning flights and on-demand charter where permitted. Maintenance considerations follow Pratt & Whitney Canada PW500-series schedules and Encore-specific airframe inspections for this serial and year group.
The Cessna Citation Encore (Model 560) occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering turbofan efficiency and a high single-flight crew/cabin utility for regional missions. Competitors in its era include similar light-to-midsize jets that trade speed and range against acquisition and operating costs; the Encore’s 1,970 nm range and 414-knot cruise align it with buyers seeking transregional capability without large-cabin expense. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2001 serial hinge on engine cycles, avionics refresh (despite the common Honeywell Primus 1000 fit) and completed structural/wing-zone inspections that typically influence market valuation.
