N219LC

This airframe, registered as N219LC, is a 2008-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with serial number 680-0249. The jet is owned by Direct Digital Leasing LLC, an LLC based in Charlotte, NC, US, and carries a US registration. The airframe is recorded with a market valuation of $7,000,000, reflecting its status as a mid-life example of the model. Notable registry highlights for this specific aircraft include its continuous US registration and ownership by a Charlotte-based leasing entity, which suggests operator deployment consistent with charters or corporate leaseback arrangements.

The cabin on this airframe is configured in a typical nine-place double-club arrangement with a single side-facing seat and an aft lavatory, although operator-specific layouts can vary. The installed avionics fit is the Honeywell Primus Epic suite as is typical for the model, supporting modern flight-management and situational-awareness capabilities. With a cruise speed of 360 kts and a range of 2,840 nm, the aircraft is suited to medium-to-long regional missions and transcontinental point-to-point business operations from its base in Charlotte, NC. Maintenance considerations for this airframe center on its twin PW306C turbofans and standard line/item inspections appropriate for a 2008 airframe in active leasing service.

Built by Cessna (Textron Aviation), the Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign represented a mid-size business jet platform emphasizing cabin comfort and transcontinental capability; this specific example combines a nine-seat executive layout with a transcontinental-range performance envelope. The combination of PW306C powerplants, a 43,000 ft ceiling and Honeywell Primus Epic avionics supports charter and corporate operators seeking a balance of range, speed, and operating economics. At a listed value of $7,000,000 for this 2008 serial 680-0249, resale and leasing considerations will reflect typical mid-life maintenance cycles, engine time and overhaul status, and demand for well-equipped, US-registered Sovereign airframes.
