Model & Market Context

This entry describes airframe N27DD, a 2009-built Cessna airframe with manufacturer's serial 680-0267 in the Citation Sovereign line. The aircraft is a factory model Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign originally completed in 2009 and is recorded as owned by DIAMOND D AVIATION LLC of Sulphur, Louisiana, United States, which serves as its operator/home base. No public registry actions or transfers beyond this ownership are noted in the provided data, and valuation or condition specifics are not published. The airframe is registered in the US civil registry and reflects a typical executive configuration and outfitting for its model year.

The aircraft is configured in a typical executive double‑club cabin seating layout accommodating 8–9 passengers, with the belted lavatory option noted as a common fit for Sovereign interiors; the specific fit in this airframe aligns with the model’s standard executive arrangement. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include medium‑long range business travel within its 2,518 nm range capability and high‑speed transcontinental hops at a cruise of 459 kts and a service ceiling of 47,000 ft, consistent with operator use from Sulphur, LA. Avionics in a standard Sovereign outfitting for this airframe employ the Honeywell Primus Epic suite, supporting advanced flight management and safety systems for charter and corporate operations. Maintenance considerations follow Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306C engine program norms and manufacturer service intervals appropriate to the Citation Sovereign platform.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies a mid‑to‑large cabin super‑midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental range and higher cruise speeds relative to light jets. Competing models in its class include late‑model super‑midsize jets from other manufacturers that target similar passenger counts and mission profiles. Buyer and charter demand for a 2009 Sovereign such as N27DD typically centers on operators needing reliable medium‑long range performance with flexible cabin layouts; resale and maintenance considerations emphasize engine program status for the PW306C pair and the lifecycle of the Honeywell Primus Epic avionics suite.
