N363AP

This entry covers airframe N363AP, a 2006-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with manufacturer serial number 680-0095. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by BELDEN INC, a corporation based in Chesterfield, Missouri, US, which appears as the recorded operator/home base in registry listings. The airframe’s maintenance and valuation records indicate a current market value of $5,850,000, and no other ownership transfers or notable registry actions are published for this specific serial in the supplied data. The listed configuration and equipment reflect the standard Sovereign fit for corporate transport missions.

The cabin of this airframe is fitted in a typical nine-passenger double-club executive layout with a forward galley and an aft lavatory, supporting corporate and executive missions that require both work and refreshment capability on board. Avionics are reported as the Honeywell Primus Epic suite typical for the Sovereign series, providing integrated flight management, navigation and communications functionality aligned with business-jet operational profiles. Typical routes for this configuration would emphasize medium-to-long-range point-to-point travel within the aircraft’s 2,820 nm capability and high-speed cruise of 446 kts, while operations benefit from the high-altitude capability to FL470 for traffic and weather avoidance. Owner-based operation from Chesterfield, MO implies regional to transcontinental flights under corporate control; maintenance considerations follow standard Pratt & Whitney PW306C and Honeywell avionics cycles.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign family occupies a midsize business-jet niche emphasizing transcontinental range, robust climb and high-altitude cruise performance. Competitors in the segment typically offer similar seating and range; buyer and charter demand for well-equipped Sovereigns centers on proven systems such as the Honeywell Primus Epic and reliable PW306-series powerplants. For resale and maintenance, engines, avionics upgrades and documented owner/operator maintenance history materially affect marketability; this airframe’s recorded valuation of $5,850,000 positions it according to those lifecycle and equipment factors.
