Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N387QS is a 2007 Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign, serial 680-0119, built by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned and operated by NetJets Aviation, Inc., a corporate owner based in Columbus, OH, US. The aircraft is recorded with a market value of $5,850,000 and is maintained in a configuration typical for executive fractional or on-demand charter service. No additional registry actions or transfers are published beyond its corporate ownership and U.S. registration.

This specific Citation Sovereign is configured with a typical 8–9 passenger double-club executive layout featuring a forward galley and aft lavatory, supporting corporate transport and regional transcontinental missions. Avionics fit for the airframe is the Honeywell Primus Epic suite, enabling modern flight management, situational awareness, and integrated flight control displays appropriate to the aircraft’s performance envelope. Operated by NetJets, the aircraft is routinely employed on medium- to long-range missions within its 3,010 nm capability and benefits from operator-driven maintenance programs and predictable scheduling typical of fractional ownership fleets. Cabin amenities reflect the model-standard executive appointments; maintenance considerations align with Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306C engine support and Honeywell avionics lifecycle management under a corporate operator.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies a mid-to-large super-midsize business jet niche, providing a balance of transcontinental range, cabin comfort, and runway performance. Its cruise speed of 459 kts and ceiling of 47,000 ft make it competitive against contemporaries in the super-midsize class. Buyers and operators, including fractional providers like NetJets, value the model for its reliability and cabin layout flexibility, while resale considerations typically reference engine-time status, avionics standardization (Honeywell Primus Epic), and overall fleet support when assessing market value.
