N227MC

The airframe bearing tail number N227MC is a 2013-built Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+, serial 560-6138, completed by Cessna Aircraft Company. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is registered to the corporation MATSCO INC, Wilmington, DE, which appears as the current owner on public records; no prior ownership transfers are published in the supplied data. The airframe is equipped and marketed in the executive mid-size business jet category, and current valuation for this specific airframe is listed at $8,850,000. FAA registry entries note an operator-specific cabin configuration and list the aircraft with 13 seats, indicating an operator-custom layout or seating limitation at the time of record.

The cabin for this airframe is typically furnished in an executive configuration seating eight to nine passengers, though the FAA record for this registration lists 13 seats, reflecting an operator-specific or alternate layout. Avionics fit for the XLS+ baseline is generally the Collins Pro Line 21 suite, and this airframe is noted as having that typical avionics fitment (Collins Pro Line 21). Operationally the airframe’s performance—cruise of 441 kts and a range of 2,100 nm—supports domestic and short transcontinental charter, corporate shuttle, and business mission profiles from its Wilmington, Delaware operator base. Maintenance considerations follow XLS+ type practices driven by the twin PW545C engines and mature support from the manufacturer and aftermarket providers.

The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche with a balance of runway performance, cabin comfort, and operating economics. It competes with contemporaries in the super-light and light midsize segments, and demand among corporate and charter buyers favors aircraft with updated avionics and well-documented maintenance histories. For this airframe, resale and continued operation will hinge on engine times and overhaul status of the PW545C engines, interior configuration (noting the FAA-listed 13-seat record versus typical 8–9 place executive fit), and the completeness of logbooks and upgrades such as the Collins Pro Line 21 avionics.
