N227VR

This entry describes airframe N227VR, a 2002-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with manufacturer serial 560-5227. The airframe is owned by ONEFLIGHT JETS INC, a corporation based in Englewood, CO, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. The aircraft is configured and registered for up to 13 seats, with the typical executive fit accommodating 7–10 passengers, and carries an estimated market value of $2,695,000. Registered for up to 13 seats is a notable certification detail tied to this specific registration and interior configuration.

The cabin of N227VR is laid out in an executive configuration and is registered for up to 13 seats while commonly fitted for 7–10 passengers in typical business missions. The avionics suite installed on this airframe is the Honeywell Primus 1000, supporting the navigation and systems management required for corporate shuttle, on-demand charter, and point-to-point business travel. Operated from the owner’s location in Englewood, CO, US, the aircraft’s performance—particularly its range of 1,839 nm and cruise speed of 429 kts—suits regional and transcontinental missions within North America. Maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on PW545A engine support and avionics lifecycle for the Primus 1000 installation.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel occupies the light-medium business jet niche, balancing cabin comfort and runway performance for owner-operators and charter companies. With twin PW545A engines producing 3,804 lbf each and a 45,000 ft ceiling, the type competes with similar-class aircraft for short-to-medium long-range corporate missions. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2002 airframe include engine time, avionics modernization of the Honeywell Primus 1000, and the market demand for executive-configured cabins capable of carrying up to 13 seats in U.S. charter and private-operator fleets.
