Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N51TE is a 2017-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign+ (serial 680-0572) manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. The airframe is registered in the US and is owned by TVPX Aircraft Solutions Inc Trustee, a corporate owner located in North Salt Lake, UT, US. The airframe presents as a business-configured executive jet with an assessed market value of $15,500,000 and is categorized as a fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft. No public record of multiple prior owners or notable registry actions beyond the trustee ownership is provided in the supplied data.
This specific Sovereign+ is outfitted in a typical nine-passenger executive cabin, featuring a forward galley/refreshment area and club seating, configured to support business and small-group transport missions. The avionics fit for this airframe is the Garmin G5000 suite, supporting modern flight-deck capabilities and advanced situational awareness appropriate for executive operations. With an operational cruise of 459 kts and a long-range capability of 3,190 nm, the aircraft is well suited to medium- to long-range point-to-point corporate missions, single-pilot or two-pilot operations depending on operator procedures. Based at North Salt Lake, UT, US by ownership association, the airframe’s maintenance profile would align with manufacturer and engine OEM intervals for the PW306D powerplants and typical Citation Sovereign+ scheduled inspections.
The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign+ occupies the mid-size business jet niche within Textron Aviation’s product line, offering a combination of transcontinental range and higher-speed cruise than earlier Sovereign variants. Its competitors in the segment include other midsize jets offering similar payload-range and cabin amenities; value and demand for this model are influenced by factors such as avionics suite upgrades like the Garmin G5000, engine maintenance history for PW306D engines, and overall cabin configuration. Given the documented valuation of $15,500,000 for this 2017 airframe, resale considerations will focus on completed maintenance records, interior condition, and any supplemental equipment or refurbishments.
