Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N18VF is a 2003-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with manufacturer serial 560-5322, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is owned by GRIFFCO AIR LLC, an LLC based in Kennesaw, GA, US, and is registered in the US. The listed valuation for this specific airframe stands at $4,378,161, and the airframe presents as a typical executive-configured Citation Excel of its vintage with routine registry entries consistent with civilian corporate operation.

This airframe is commonly configured in a typical executive layout and for this specific airframe accommodates up to 13 seats in arrangements such as 2 cockpit seats, a four-club seating section, two forward-facing seats and an optional belted lavatory. Operated from its owner’s base in Kennesaw, GA, US, missions for the airframe would typically include short- to medium-range corporate and charter trips within the aircraft’s 1,847 nm range and at cruise speeds around 420 kts, taking advantage of its midsize cabin and executive seating. Avionics fit and specific interior finish for this serial are standard for the model year unless otherwise modified; maintenance considerations follow Pratt & Whitney PW545 engine support and midsize-citation maintenance intervals associated with the airframe’s 2003 build year.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel family occupies the midsize, fixed-wing multi-engine executive transport niche, combining cabin comfort with transcontinental short-range capability reflected in this airframe’s 1,847 nm range and 45,000 ft ceiling. Competing models typically include other light-to-midsize business jets offering similar cruise speeds near 420 kts and seating for up to a dozen passengers; market demand historically centers on corporate owners and charter operators valuing the Excel’s blend of operating economics and cabin utility. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2003 airframe include typical age-related refurbishment and continued support for PW545 engines and airframe systems when assessing valuation near $4.38M.
