N524QS

The airframe bearing tail number N524QS is a Cessna 680A Citation Latitude built in 2016, serial 680A0062, manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. The airframe is recorded as owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft is a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet configured for corporate transport and is typically operated within fractional ownership and corporate flight programs. The registry shows conventional ownership by a large fractional operator, reflecting typical operational use, maintenance cycles, and centralized records for the airframe.

This specific Latitude is configured for two flight crew and up to nine passengers with a published seating complement of 10, commonly fitted in a typical executive club layout that emphasizes a flat floor and flexible cabin arrangements. The cabin options include forward galley and forward lavatory arrangements, suitable for short- to medium-haul executive missions across continental and transcontinental routes within the aircraft’s 2,700 nm range. The flight deck is equipped with an integrated Garmin G5000 suite, including touchscreen controls, synthetic vision, and autothrottles, supporting single-pilot capable systems in the family and enhancing situational awareness and automation for two-pilot operations. As operated by a fractional/corporate owner, this airframe is maintained to program standards typical of large operators, with centralized records and scheduled heavy maintenance managed according to the manufacturer and operator programs.

The Cessna 680A Citation Latitude occupies the midsize, transcontinental business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort, range, and operating economics suited to corporate shuttle and charter missions. With cruise speeds near 446 kts and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, it competes with other midsize jets in buyer and charter demand for regional and continental travel. Engines of the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D1 family provide established support networks, which alongside common avionics packages like the Garmin G5000, factor into maintenance planning and resale valuation for airframes operated in fractional fleets.
