N4000K

This entry describes airframe N4000K, a Cessna Citation Excel (560XL) built in 2000 with manufacturer serial number 560-5081. The airframe is recorded as owned by KIMBALL INTERNATIONAL TRANSIT INC, a corporate registrant based in Jasper, IN, US, and is registered in the United States. The airframe’s documentation indicates an operator-configured executive interior commonly used in an 8-place charter layout, while the FAA certificated seating capacity allows up to 13 passengers. No public records beyond the corporate ownership and basic registry attributes are provided here; ownership is held by the named corporation and the aircraft’s fit and upgrade status are operator-dependent.

The cabin on N4000K is operator-configured in an executive layout, with the common charter fit noted as an eight-place arrangement while the FAA certification permits up to 13 seats; this dual notation reflects flexibility for corporate, charter, or mixed-use missions. Avionics are listed as Honeywell-series equipment, with the specific fit and any aftermarket upgrades being operator-dependent, meaning avionics capability and functionality can vary by configuration history. Typical missions for this airframe type and configuration include short to mid-range corporate transport and on-demand charter flights within its published range of 1,847 nm and cruise of 429 kts, operating from its home base in Jasper, IN, US under corporate operation. Maintenance considerations reflect standard light-business-jet scheduling and Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545-series engine support requirements; any unique amenities or modifications are not published beyond operator configuration.

As a member of the Cessna Citation Excel (560XL) family, N4000K sits in the midsize business jet niche combining cabin comfort with transcontinental capability for its class. The platform competes with other light-to-midsize corporate jets where buyers and charter operators prioritize a balance of cabin size, operating economics, and runway performance. Market considerations for this specific airframe include the age profile from its 2000 build year, operator-dependent avionics fit, and maintenance/engine support for the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545-series powerplants, all of which influence resale value and charter demand within the used business jet marketplace.
