N427PM

This article describes airframe N427PM, a 2009-built Cessna Citation XLS+ with serial number 560-6052. The aircraft is owned by SUNNYSIDE AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Jacksonville, FL, US, and is U.S.-registered. The airframe is outfitted and maintained as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet and carries an estimated market value of $5,250,000; its configuration and avionics complement typical corporate and charter usage. No other ownership or registry events are published beyond the current LLC ownership and home base.

The cabin of N427PM is arranged with a forward two-place side-facing divan, a mid cabin four-place club, two aft forward-facing seats and a belted lav seat, complemented by a forward galley—supporting up to 9 passengers in mixed lounge and forward-facing layouts. The avionics fit is Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 with Collins IFIS-5000, dual FMC-3000/FMS-3000, Flight Guidance FGC-3000, TCAS II and Mark V EGPWS, providing modern navigation, flight guidance and situational awareness for business route structures. Typical missions for this airframe’s performance envelope (maximum cruise around 441 kts and range near 2,100 nm) would include medium‑range corporate travel and on-demand charter operations from its Jacksonville, Florida base. Maintenance consideration for this specific airframe centers on the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C engines and Pro Line 21 avionics suite, which require operator-aligned inspection cycles and software/avionics support to retain certified functionality.

The Cessna Citation XLS+ occupies the light-medium business jet niche with comfortable cabin seating for up to nine passengers, transcontinental short‑to‑medium range capability and cruise speeds in the low‑mid 400‑kt band. Competitors in this segment typically include other midsize/large light-cabin jets offering similar range and speed; buyer and charter demand favors airframes with well-documented maintenance records and contemporary avionics such as Pro Line 21. Resale and operating considerations for N427PM include lifecycle support for the PW545C engines, continued avionics support for Pro Line 21/IFIS-5000 components, and market valuation reflective of 2009 build year and present equipment.
