Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N242AS, is a Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign built in 2006 with serial number 680-0084. It appears on the U.S. registry and is owned by GREENHAVEN SECURITIES LLC of Alamo, CA, US. The aircraft is a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet type operated from the United States and carries an estimated market value of $6,000,000, a figure indicative of age, configuration and market conditions for mid-2000s Sovereign airframes. No additional public registry actions or operator changes are published beyond the listed ownership and registration.
The cabin of this specific airframe is fitted in a typical executive layout accommodating 9 passengers in a double-club arrangement with a forward galley and an enclosed lavatory, although specifics may vary by operator. Avionics are in a typical configuration of the model with a Honeywell Primus Epic suite, supporting the aircraft’s long-range corporate and charter mission profiles. With a cruise speed of 459 kts and a transcontinental range of 2,847 nm, the Sovereign is commonly used on point-to-point executive transport and regional international hops from its base in Alamo, CA, US. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306C engine family and avionics support requirements typical of Honeywell integrated flight decks.
The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies the midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability with a high cruise speed and 47,000 ft service ceiling suitable for efficient, long-range corporate operations. Competing models in its class typically include other midsize jets offering similar range and cabin comfort; resale and maintenance valuations for a 2006 Sovereign such as N242AS are influenced by total time, maintenance status and avionics configuration. Buyer and charter demand tends to favor well-equipped, well-maintained examples with modern avionics like the Honeywell Primus Epic, and the listed valuation of $6,000,000 reflects a market balancing age against capability and operational readiness.
