N229N

The airframe bearing tail number N229N is a 2007-built Cessna 560 Citation Encore+, serial 560-0759, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is registered in the US and is owned by the Seattle-based corporation JBW Aircraft Leasing Co. Inc., which appears as the primary operator/lessor on registry records. Acquired into the JBW fleet as a corporate-leased asset, the jet sits in the light-corporate category of fixed-wing multiengine business aircraft and carries an estimated market valuation of $4,000,000, reflective of its model year, equipment fit, and typical 7-place executive interior. No additional public registry events beyond standard U.S. registration and corporate ownership are recorded in the supplied data.

The airframe is fitted with a typical 7-place executive cabin in a club seating arrangement, commonly complemented by a forward galley and an aft lavatory on many Encore+ examples; that standard layout describes this example's interior configuration. Avionics equipment for this airframe follows the common Encore+ fit with Collins Pro Line 21, supporting regional and interstate corporate missions. Operational profiles for N229N are representative of light business-jet use: short- to mid-range point-to-point charters and corporate hops within the aircraft’s 1,760 nm range and at cruise speeds near 414 kts, operating from its Seattle corporate base when active. Maintenance considerations align with Pratt & Whitney Canada PW535B engine support and Pro Line 21 avionics lifecycle items typical for a 2007-model Encore+.

The Cessna 560 Citation Encore+ sits in the light-cabin turbofan category, offering higher cruise and altitude capability relative to earlier Citation models; this airframe’s 45,000 ft ceiling and PW535B engines underscore that performance niche. Competing light-cabin models and later midsize jets influence charter demand and resale pricing, with buyer interest often focused on engine-time, avionics fit, and interior condition—factors that contribute to the stated $4,000,000 valuation for this 2007 example. Routine maintenance and parts support for the Pratt & Whitney PW535B and Collins Pro Line 21 avionics are key resale considerations for prospective owners or operators evaluating N229N.
