Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N253TX, is a 2008-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with manufacturer serial number 680-0253. The airframe is listed as owned by 253TX HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC based in HIALEAHPOLIS, FL, US, and is registered in the US. Public records for this specific airframe do not publish a detailed ownership history beyond the current titled owner and do not list notable registry actions or valuation/condition highlights. Maintenance and operational details beyond manufacturer-standard equipment and configuration are not published for this individual aircraft.
The airframe is typically outfitted in a nine-place executive interior with club seating, and is configured with a full galley and lavatory, although cabin fit can vary by operator. As configured, the aircraft supports executive transport missions and single-leg transcontinental flights within its published range, with interior arrangements suitable for business or private charter use. Avionics fit and specific equipment for this serial are not published in the available data; therefore, typical operational considerations follow the model-standard systems and maintenance regimes. Based in the owner’s listed locality in HIALEAHPOLIS, FL, US, operational deployment would commonly include domestic U.S. and nearby international routes consistent with the Sovereign’s performance.
The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies the midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental range and high cruise speed relative to light jets, making it competitive for owner-operators and charter operators needing 2,000+ nm capability. Its direct competitors include other midsize cabins with similar range and cabin amenities; buyer demand historically targets corporate flight departments and fractional/charter fleets. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe hinge on engine hours, maintenance tracking, and interior condition, none of which are published for 680-0253, so typical market valuation should be assessed against verified logs and equipment lists.
