Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N324QS, is a 2008-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with serial number 680-0242. The aircraft is owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and carries United States registration. The airframe’s documented valuation is $5,500,000, reflecting its age, configuration, and installed equipment. Recorded ownership by NETJETS SALES INC indicates operation within a fractional/managed flight context and associated maintenance and utilization practices.
The cabin of this airframe is fitted in a typical nine-passenger double-club layout with a forward refreshment center and an aft lavatory, matching a conventional executive-configured interior for short- to medium-haul missions. Avionics on the airframe are an integrated Honeywell Primus Epic system, which supports advanced flight management, situational awareness, and systems integration for the installed propulsion and airframe. With a cruise speed of 459 kts and a range of 2,829 nm, the aircraft is suited to transcontinental and high-utilization point-to-point missions commonly flown from its operator’s home base. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft would reflect the requirements of twin PW306C turbofan engines and the installed avionics suite under corporate operator maintenance programs.
As a member of the Citation Sovereign family, this Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign airframe occupies a performance niche emphasizing combination of range, speed, and cabin comfort for single-pilot or two-pilot corporate operations. The documented ceiling of 47,000 ft and the twin PW306C engine fit provide ample performance for enroute efficiency and altitudes that reduce weather and traffic constraints. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its operator history with NETJETS SALES INC, the airframe serial 680-0242, and the installed Honeywell Primus Epic avionics suite, all factors that figure into market valuation and operator demand.
