Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N165DS, is a 2014-built Cessna 560XL (Citation XLS+) with serial number 560-6175. It is owned by Jet Linx Aviation, LLC, a corporate operator based in Dallas, TX, and appears on the U.S. civil register under US registration. The airframe carries a typical mid‑2010s Citation XLS+ specification and is assigned a market valuation of $5,500,000. No additional historical transfers or notable registry actions beyond the current corporate ownership are listed in the supplied data.
The cabin of this specific Citation XLS+ is outfitted in a typical seven‑place executive layout comprising six pedestal seats arranged in a single club configuration and a right‑hand forward side‑facing seat, matching a common corporate shuttle and on‑demand charter interior. Avionics for the airframe are listed as Collins Pro Line 21 (Pro Line 21 / Collins NAV-4000 / Collins FMS-3000 as listed), supporting modern navigation, flight management and integrated flight deck capabilities appropriate for business jet operations. With a 2,100 nm range and a cruise speed of 441 kts, the aircraft is well suited to domestic and near‑international point‑to‑point missions typical of corporate flight departments and charter operators based in Dallas, TX. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow PW545C engine support and Pro Line 21 avionics common‑care practices as applicable to the model.
The Cessna 560XL (Citation XLS+) occupies the light midsize business jet niche, balancing cabin comfort and runway performance for regional and transcontinental missions up to its 2,100 nm capability. Its twin PW545C turbofan configuration and 45,000 ft ceiling offer operational flexibility for corporate flight departments and charter operators seeking efficient cruise at higher altitudes. Competing types in the same market segment typically emphasize similar short‑field capability, cabin layouts and avionics suites; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe will be influenced by engine time, Pro Line 21 avionics status and the prevailing demand for seven‑place executive configurations.
