N323NE

This airframe, registered as N323NE, is a 1997-built Cessna 560 Citation Ultra with manufacturer serial number 560-0442, produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is owned by NCW Aircraft LLC, a corporate owner listed on the US registration record. The aircraft carries US registration and is valued at $2,200,000, reflecting typical market pricing for late‑1990s Citation Ultra examples and its configuration and avionics fit. No further ownership transfers or notable registry actions are published beyond the current corporate registration.

The cabin of N323NE is fitted in the common Ultra executive configuration, described as an executive 7–11 passenger club layout with a forward two‑place divan and a belted aft lav seat, reflecting the typical Ultra interior. Avionics are reported as a Honeywell Primus‑style fitment, consistent with common Ultra upgrades and retrofit programs for situational awareness and flight management capability. Operationally, the airframe’s combination of a 1,524 nm range and 373 kt cruise speed suits short‑to‑mid‑range corporate missions and charter flights within domestic US sectors from its registered base. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft would follow Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D‑5D engine programs and standard Citation Ultra airframe inspections, with corporate ownership implying centralized upkeep and record‑keeping.

The Cessna 560 Citation Ultra occupies the light to midsize business jet niche, providing higher cruise speeds and altitudes than entry‑level light jets while retaining airport flexibility. Competing models in its era include upgraded light midsize jets and late‑generation light business aircraft; demand for used Ultras focuses on cost‑conscious buyers and charter operators seeking a balance of performance and operating economics. For N323NE, factors affecting resale and maintenance include engine program status, avionics upgrades such as the Honeywell Primus‑style fit, and the aircraft’s executive interior configuration.
