N346XL

The airframe bearing tail number N346XL is a factory-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel completed in 2003, serial 560-5346. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by Rolling Green Enterprises LLC, an LLC based in Bloomington / St. Louis Park, MN, US; this entity is the current and primary operator/home base listed for the airframe. No additional public ownership transfers or recorded notable incidents are included in the provided data. The airframe is economically valued at $3,000,000, reflecting its age, configuration and typical market considerations for early-2000s Citation XLS/XL-series jets.

This specific Cessna 560XL Citation Excel is fitted with a typical executive cabin layout featuring center-club seating, a forward refreshment/galley area and an aft belted lavatory, consistent with the common 8–13 pax cabin arrangements for the model. Factory avionics for this airframe are from the Honeywell Primus-class family, a common original fit, with many similar airframes later receiving integrated upgrades; the provided data notes the typical factory fit rather than a specific upgrade history for this tail. Typical missions for this airframe profile include short-to-medium range executive transport and on-demand charter operations within the aircraft’s 1,847 nm mission radius, operating from its Minnesota base for regional and transcontinental hops as conditions allow. Maintenance considerations align with the PW545 powerplant common to early XLs and the avionics upgrade pathways typical of the platform.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel occupies a light-medium business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin space, speed and runway performance for owner-operators and charter operators. With a cruise around 429 kts and a ceiling of 45,000 ft, the type competes with models such as the Bombardier Learjet series and older Challenger or Hawker light-cabin types in owner-operator and charter markets. Demand for early-2000s airframes is sensitive to maintenance history and avionics fit; airframes with Honeywell Primus-class originals often see value uplift when upgraded to modern integrated flight decks. Resale and maintenance considerations for this particular airframe will be influenced by engine time on the PW545 units, completion of recommended inspections, and any avionics modernization completed since the 2003 factory build.
