Model & Market Context
This entry describes airframe N23LX, a 2008-built Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ with serial number 560-6010, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by NWA AVO LLC, a Fayetteville, AR–based limited liability company; its recorded operator/home base is Fayetteville, Arkansas. Registration and ownership are recorded to NWA AVO LLC (Fayetteville, AR), indicating corporate ownership rather than individual or commercial fractional operation. The airframe is presented in typical XLS+ specification and is valued at $8,400,000 on the available listing.
The cabin for N23LX is configured in a typical executive layout offering 8–9 club seating as standard but may be fitted up to 13 seats depending on customer layout; the interior includes a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory as listed. Avionics fit for XLS+ examples and listed equipment on the broker listing show a Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite, providing a modern integrated flightdeck consistent with business-jet operations. With a long-range cruise capability and high cruise speed, the airframe is suited to domestic and transcontinental business missions from its Fayetteville base, where operator logistics and maintenance are conducted under corporate ownership. Maintenance considerations follow standard PW545C engine support and XLS+ avionics lifecycle planning as implied by the installed equipment and year of manufacture.
As a member of the Citation Excel/XLS family, the Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ represented a mid-size business jet niche combining short-field flexibility with transcontinental capability: a cruise of 441 kts and a maximum certified ceiling of 45,000 ft support fast, efficient point-to-point travel. Competitors in the segment typically include similar midsize jets offering comparable range and speed; buyer and charter demand for late-2000s XLS+ examples centers on airframes with updated avionics and well-documented maintenance, factors that influence resale value and marketability of this 2008 airframe.
