N2000X

This airframe, registered as N2000X, is a 1994-built Cessna 560 Citation V with serial number 560-0249. The aircraft is manufactured by Cessna and appears on U.S. registry as a fixed-wing multi-engine type; its current owner is 4THD LLC, an LLC based in Midland, TX, US, which represents the most recent documented ownership entry. The FAA record for this airframe lists 11 seats, while typical executive layouts for the model are 7–8 places, a discrepancy noted in transaction and listing materials. Market valuation and condition highlights show a listed value of $1,295,000, consistent with late-model Citation V airframes offered in the pre-owned market.

The cabin for this airframe is described as an executive layout, with typical 7–8 place configurations used for corporate transport, although the FAA record lists 11 seats, a detail relevant for operator passenger planning and regulatory compliance. Avionics fitment on listings and records includes Garmin GTN 750 and GTN 650 navigators, dual Honeywell EFIS ED-600 displays (per listing), Bendix weather radar, GTX-345R/GTX-335R ADS-B equipment, and an SPZ-500 autopilot, providing a mixed OEM-and-aftermarket avionics suite suited to regional cross-country and corporate missions. Based in Midland, TX, US under 4THD LLC ownership, typical missions would include medium-range executive transport within the aircraft’s 1,960 nm range and cruise speeds near 430 kts. Maintenance considerations reflect the twin JT15D-5 turbofan fleet commonality and the avionics mix when planning upgrades or inspections.

The Cessna 560 Citation V occupies a niche for light corporate jets offering transcontinental regional range and relatively high cruise speed for its class, exemplified here by 430 kts cruise and a 45,000 ft ceiling. Competing models in its era include light to midsize turbofan business jets that prioritize speed and runway performance; buyers and charter operators value Citation Vs for proven reliability and operating economy. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine JT15D-5 lifecycle status, avionics modernization (the Garmin and Honeywell components noted), and seating configuration differences such as the FAA-listed 11 seats versus the typical 7–8 executive layout, all factors influencing market demand and price realization.
