N24KS

This entry documents airframe N24KS, a 2007-built Cessna 560XL (Citation Excel/XLS) with serial number 560-5750. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is held in co-ownership by YAMPA LLC, located in Kenner, LA, US. Airworthiness records indicate the shipset is certificated for thirteen seats and the airframe carries an estimated value of $5,500,000. Registry status and ownership have been noted without public record of operational incidents in the provided data.

The cabin is outfitted in an executive layout typical of the Excel/XLS family, with documentation showing a certificated seating configuration for 13 though typical executive seating arrangements for the model range between 8–12 passengers. Avionics are reported as Honeywell-series equipment consistent with Excel/XLS configurations, with the caveat that exact shipset fit may vary by individual aircraft. Typical mission profiles for this airframe type include short- to medium-range executive transport within its 1,847 nm range and fast-climb cruise to high-flight levels up to 45,000 ft, operating from the owner/operator base in Kenner, Louisiana as indicated by the ownership record. Maintenance and cabin refurbishment considerations follow standard Citation Excel/XLS practices given the 2007 build year and the dual Pratt & Whitney PW545B engines.

The Cessna 560XL (Citation Excel/XLS) occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering transcontinental short-haul capability with a cruise around 433 kts and good airport performance for its class. Competing models target buyers seeking a balance of cabin comfort and operating economy in the 8–12 passenger executive market; this particular airframe’s certificated 13-seat configuration and 2007 build year influence both charter utility and resale valuation. Prospective buyers and operators will weigh the airframe’s maintenance status, avionics shipset variability, and the continued support for Pratt & Whitney PW545B engines when assessing lifecycle and market positioning.
