N499AV

This airframe, registered as N499AV, is a 2005-built Cessna 560XL Citation XLS with serial number 560-5602. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is registered to TETON LEASING LLC, a corporate owner located in Pocatello, Idaho, which serves as the operator/home base for registry purposes. The airframe’s record indicates typical corporate ownership and leasing use rather than airline or fractional operation; no public record of major registry actions beyond the corporate registration is provided in the supplied data. Valuation data places the airframe at approximately $6,000,000, a figure useful for market comparison and insurance or lease considerations.

The aircraft is registered for 13 seats, though common executive layouts for the Citation XLS family often configure the cabin for 8–10 passengers to provide a mixed seating and club arrangement; this airframe’s registration allows flexible use across corporate, charter, or leasing missions. Avionics fit for the model is typically the Honeywell Primus 1000 EFIS suite, and that standard fitment is noted as typical for the XLS. Typical operation profiles for this platform include short to mid-range corporate point-to-point missions within the aircraft’s 1,940 nm range and high-speed cruise at 441 kt, operating from the owner’s base in Pocatello, Idaho, or regionally across the continental United States. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the two PW545 engines and the Citation XLS maintenance program, with lifecycle and parts considerations aligned to the 2005 build year and corporate-lease usage.

The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS occupies a niche as a midsize business jet offering transcontinental short-to-medium range capability with a high cruise speed and 45,000 ft service ceiling. Its performance positions it against competing midsize jets in the late-model pre-owned market, attracting buyers and charter operators seeking a balance of cabin capacity and operational efficiency. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2005 airframe focus on engine life, avionics currency (the Honeywell Primus 1000 is typical), and interior refurbishment if configured for executive layouts; the stated valuation of $6,000,000 reflects those age and configuration factors.
