N427GY

This article describes the specific airframe bearing tail number N427GY, a 2015-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign+ with serial number 680-0542. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by G S D RENTALS INC, a corporation based in Norco, California, which operates or bases the airplane from that location. Acquired into the G S D RENTALS INC fleet and maintained as a charter/rental asset, the airframe reflects a middle-market late-model Sovereign+ valuation of approximately $11,000,000 and shows the typical condition and equipment fit expected of a 2015 production example. No additional registry actions or transfers are published beyond the current corporate ownership and U.S. registration.

The cabin of this Sovereign+ is fitted in a typical nine-passenger layout featuring a double-club arrangement, a forward side-facing seat, a forward refreshment center, and an aft belted lavatory, consistent with corporate charter use and short-to-medium international missions. The airframe carries a Garmin G5000 integrated flight deck in the typical Sovereign+ fit, supporting advanced avionics, trip planning and approach capabilities required for busy charter operations. With a long-range capability of 3,190 nm and a cruise speed of 444 kts, the aircraft is commonly employed on transcontinental and near-international routes from its Norco, CA base, balancing efficiency and speed for owner/operator rental missions. Routine maintenance considerations follow Pratt & Whitney Canada PW300-series schedules and Garmin avionics support practices for this configuration.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign+ occupies the mid-size, transcontinental business jet niche within Textron Aviation’s Citation family, offering high single-pilot capability, roomy cabin ergonomics and strong runway performance. Competing models in the market include certain offerings from Embraer and Bombardier in the mid-size category, where buyers weigh range, cabin size and acquisition/operating costs; the Sovereign+ in 2015 specification is notable for its blend of range and airport performance. For resale and charter demand, a 2015 Sovereign+ with Garmin G5000 and PW306D engines, like N427GY, typically retains appeal for operators seeking immediate mission-ready capability, while maintenance planning must account for PW300-series shop visit cycles and avionics support continuity.
