Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N396BB is a 2007-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with manufacturer serial 680-0123, produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation). This specific airframe is owned by BROWN & BROWN INC, a corporation based in Daytona Beach, FL, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe carries a market valuation of $6,400,000 consistent with its age, configuration, and systems fit. Maintenance and operational records are not published here, but the aircraft’s corporate ownership and executive 9-seat layout indicate typical use in business transport and charter support.

The cabin is arranged in a 9-seat executive layout (double-club typical), providing a standard corporate interior for short- to mid‑long range missions. Avionics are fitted with the Honeywell Primus Epic integrated flight deck, supporting modern navigation, communication, and situational awareness capabilities appropriate for single-pilot or two-pilot operations within this class. Typical missions for this airframe would include intercity business travel and company executive transport across ranges up to its 2,820 nm capability, operating from the owner’s base at Daytona Beach, FL, US. As a corporate-operated airframe, maintenance considerations focus on preserving cabin systems, avionics life‑cycle support, and the PW306C engine maintenance program cadence.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies a midsize business jet niche with transcontinental range and high single‑engine performance margins for its class. Competing models in the market include other midsize jets offering similar range and cabin comfort; buyers typically value the Sovereign for its combination of runway performance, range, and a roomy executive cabin. For this 2007 airframe, resale and upkeep considerations center on engine program enrollment for the PW306C, avionics upgrades to extend operational relevancy of the Honeywell Primus Epic, and interior refurbishment cycles that affect market valuation.
