Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N33LX is a factory-built Cessna 560XL Citation XLS Plus completed in 2024 with serial number 560-6354. The aircraft is recorded as owned by LX AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Little Rock, AR, US, and is registered in the US. The FAA registry shows this airframe certificated with 13 seats; it is recorded to be operated from Little Rock under the LLC ownership. Current valuation and detailed condition reports are not published for this specific airframe.
This airframe is typically fitted in an executive layout, and while the FAA shows 13 certified seats for this airframe, common executive configurations for the model accommodate an 8–9 passenger executive fit. The installed avionics suite is typical of the model with Collins Pro Line 21, with an available upgrade path to Garmin G5000 for operators seeking a modern integrated flightdeck. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft include short- to medium-range business trips within the continental US and cross-country flights using the aircraft’s approximate 2,100 nm range and high cruise speed of 441 kts. Maintenance considerations follow the turbofan twin program of the Citation XLS Plus family, with PW545C engine support and standard scheduled inspections aligned to OEM and regulatory requirements.
The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS Plus occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort and efficient single-pilot optional operations for many operators. Competing models include contemporary light-medium jets that emphasize short-field capability and fuel-efficient turbofan engines; buyer demand typically targets corporate flight departments and charter operators seeking range near 2,100 nm and cruise speeds in the low-400s knot range. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the XLS Plus platform’s established support network, common avionics configurations (Collins Pro Line 21) and the availability of modernization paths such as the Garmin G5000 upgrade.
