Typical 8–9 passenger double‑club arrangement with forward galley and enclosed aft lavatory; large external baggage compartment (~100–135 cu ft depending on fit). Common features on Sovereigns of this vintage include leather club seating, executive tables, forward galley, aft lavatory, satellite or ATG connectivity options and optional Wi‑Fi/GoGo installations depending on fleet fit; specific interior for N334QS not published in public sale listings. Avionics: Honeywell Primus Epic (common fitment on Sovereign examples; many used listings reference Primus Epic or upgraded G5000 variants for later Sovereign+ examples).

Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N334QS, is a 2007-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with serial number 680-0164. The airframe is owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and carries a US civil registration. The entry reflects the aircraft’s status as a corporate-operated Sovereign example kept within a fractional/portfolio operator environment, with an estimated market valuation of $6,000,000 indicating a used-condition business jet of its vintage and configuration. Notable registry information includes its US registration and ownership by a large corporate fleet owner, suggesting operator-standard maintenance and record keeping.

This specific Sovereign is configured with a typical cabin layout for the model: a double‑club arrangement accommodating 8–9 passengers, a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory, and a sizable external baggage compartment in the approximately 100–135 cu ft range depending on fit. Avionics on the airframe are in line with common Sovereign fitments, listed as Honeywell Primus Epic, a standard integrated flight deck for the type (with many examples later offered with G5000 upgrades). Operationally, the jet’s 2,820 nm range and high cruise speed support regional to transcontinental missions within North America from the operator’s Oklahoma City base, consistent with corporate transport and fractional flight profiles. Fleet ownership by NETJETS SALES INC implies adherence to fleet-level maintenance programs and utilization patterns typical of corporate/fractional operators.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign sits in the mid-size, longer‑range business jet category, offering a balance of passenger capacity, baggage volume and range as evidenced by this airframe’s 2,820 nm capability and 9-seat interior. Its performance—cruise around 459 kts and a service ceiling of 47,000 ft—targets operators seeking fast, efficient point‑to‑point travel without stepping into the large-cabin segment. Market demand for used Sovereign examples often reflects considerations such as avionics fit (notably the Honeywell Primus Epic common fitment), engine type (PW306C) and overall lifecycle costs; the posted valuation of $6,000,000 on this 2007 serial underscores resale and maintenance considerations for buyers and charter operators assessing fleet additions.
