N219TA

This entry covers airframe N219TA, a 2004-built example of the Cessna 560 Citation Encore with serial number 560-0669. The airframe is owned by Landmasters Aviation Services LLC of Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. Public documentation specific to recent registry movements or valuation is not published; the available record emphasizes the airframe's build details and current corporate ownership.

The airframe’s cabin is configured in a typical executive layout offering 7–8 place club seating with a forward refreshment center and an aft enclosed lavatory, suitable for corporate transport and on-demand charter missions. Avionics fit aligns with Encore variants and is listed as Honeywell Primus 1000, supporting the type’s operational profile for short- to medium-haul high-speed executive flights. With an approximate cruise of 430 kts and a range of 1,600 nm, missions commonly include regional transcontinental hops, business commuting, and priority freight of time-sensitive goods where a small, high-performance cabin is preferred. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect typical Encore-era systems—Pratt & Whitney Canada PW535A engines and Honeywell avionics—requiring type-specific inspections and avionics support consistent with corporate ownership by Landmasters Aviation Services LLC.

The Cessna 560 Citation Encore occupies the light to midsize business jet niche, offering higher cruise speeds and a 45,000 ft ceiling compared with earlier Citation entrants. Typical competitors include other light-to-midsize turbofan cabins offering similar range and speed; demand is driven by owner-operators and charter brokers seeking compact, efficient executive transports. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2004 airframe center on engine life limits, avionics upgrades from Honeywell Primus 1000 platforms, and the market preference for well-documented corporate ownership histories such as that of Landmasters Aviation Services LLC.
