N51CA

This entry concerns airframe N51CA, a 2002-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel bearing serial number 560-5234. The airframe is registered in the United States to OKLAHOMA JET 560-5234 LLC, a Ponca City, Oklahoma–based corporation, which is the listed owner and operator/home base for this airframe. The aircraft’s registry records notably list a 13-seat configuration and valuation records indicate a market value of $3,000,000 for this specific airframe. No additional ownership transfers or major registry actions are published beyond the current corporate registration.

The subject airframe is typically configured in an executive cabin layout, with manufacturer and marketplace descriptions of the 560XL family accommodating 7–9 passengers in business configurations while the registry for this unit lists 13 seats; an example listing for the same serial noted an 8-passenger executive layout with a belted lavatory seat and a forward galley. Avionics fit on this airframe includes a Honeywell Primus 1000 suite with triple DU-870 displays and a UNS-1 FMS as typical equipment, supporting precision navigation and common operator workflows. Typical missions for this airframe length and performance profile include short- to mid-range executive point-to-point flights from its Ponca City base, with operational considerations influenced by the airframe’s age (2002 vintage) and installed systems when planning maintenance cycles and interior refurbishments.

Within the Cessna 560XL Citation Excel family, this airframe’s combination of a 423 kts cruise, 1,657 nm range and 45,000 ft service ceiling places it in the light-medium business turbofan niche focused on efficient regional executive transport. The installed Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545A engines and legacy Honeywell Primus 1000 avionics reflect a platform with well-understood maintenance profiles and common support pathways, while the 2002 build year and the listed $3,000,000 value frame typical resale and refurbishment considerations for buyers or charter operators evaluating upgrades or cabin reconfigurations.
