Model & Market Context

The airframe N135SP is a 2000-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with serial number 560-5089, recorded in the US registry. The airframe is held in co-ownership by CIT XL LLC, based in Naples, FL, and the registry shows a full seating configuration for 13. Maintenance and registration entries reflect an executive-configured airframe operated from its Florida base; no other ownership transfers are published in the supplied data.

This specific Excel is furnished in a typical executive club layout accommodating 7–9 passengers in practice while the registry lists 13 seats, and it includes a forward galley and an aft belted lavatory. External baggage capacity is approximately 80 cu ft, supporting extended executive missions within the declared 1,847 nm range and at cruise speeds around 429 kts to high-altitude flight up to 45,000 ft. The avionics fit for this airframe is the Honeywell Primus 1000, a common installation for Excel-series aircraft, which informs both operational capability and maintenance planning for avionics support. The Naples, FL-based co-ownership structure suggests utilization in regional U.S. charter or corporate missions originating from that home base.

The airframe belongs to the Cessna 560XL Citation Excel family produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and, as exemplified by this serial, offers mid-size business turbofan performance characterized by its listed cruise, range, and ceiling. The Honeywell Primus 1000 fitment noted for this airframe is typical across the series and factors into parts commonality and avionics maintenance cycles. Capacity flexibility—typical executive club seating versus a registry-listed 13-seat configuration—and an ~80 cu ft external baggage volume are practical considerations for operators evaluating mission versatility and resale positioning for this airframe.
