Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N285CC is a 1995-built Cessna 560 Citation Ultra, serial number 560-0285, recorded on U.S. civil registers. Ownership is listed to 3Kd LLC, an LLC based in Wilmington, DE, which serves as the current registered owner and de facto operator/home base for the type-recorded activities; the aircraft carries a U.S. registration. No separate commercial operator or charter management company is published in the supplied data. Notable registry actions for this specific airframe are limited in the provided dataset; valuation and detailed condition reports are not published here.

This specific Citation Ultra is outfitted in a typical seven-place executive configuration, featuring a forward club seating arrangement, a belted divan, and an optionally installed enclosed lavatory as described in the type’s common cabin layouts. Avionics fit for the Ultra is typically the Honeywell Primus 1000 EFIS, which supports conventional IFR and corporate mission profiles; the supplied data notes this as the typical Ultra fitment for aircraft of this model. The aircraft’s combination of range and cruise speed positions it for short- to mid-range executive transport, frequently used for point-to-point corporate missions from its Wilmington, DE base; specific mission logs or unique interior amenities for this airframe are not provided. Maintenance considerations follow the twin-JT15D turbofan regime typical to the model, though no specific maintenance status is included.

The Cessna 560 Citation Ultra occupies the light-corporate jet niche, offering higher cruise speed and altitude capability than many earlier Citation models, with a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, a cruise of 430 kts, and transcontinental-influenced range near 1,960 nm. Common competitors in the era include other light jets with similar cabin counts and performance; buyer and charter demand historically favor aircraft that combine short-field capability with corporate comfort. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe would center on Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D engine cycles, avionics configuration such as the Honeywell Primus 1000, and the recorded ownership and registration history with 3Kd LLC.
