Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N5434K, is a 2003-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with serial number 560-5345 manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation). It is owned by KOWALIK RAYMOND J TRUSTEE, an individual based in Lees Summit, MO, US, and operates on a US registration. The aircraft’s records indicate an in-service executive configuration and a market valuation listed at $2,400,000, reflecting its age, avionics fit and engine series. No other public registry actions are provided in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific Citation Excel is described as a typical executive layout supporting 8–13 pax depending on interior with a forward galley and a belted aft lavatory, acknowledging operator-specific fit. Avionics are of the Honeywell Primus-series family (typical / Primus 1000 on many examples), which supports IFR corporate operations and common short- to medium-haul mission profiles. With a cruise of 423 kts and a range of 1,847 nm, the airframe is suitable for regional corporate missions and on-demand charter work from its owner/operator base in Lees Summit, MO. Maintenance considerations tie to the PW545 engine series and standard Textron service network support for the 560XL platform.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel occupies the mid-size business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin capacity, speed and runway performance compared with light and larger heavy-cabin types. Its twin PW545 engines and a 45,000 ft service ceiling deliver competitive performance for regional corporate travel. Typical buyers and charter operators seek these airframes for reliable, cost-effective operations; resale and maintenance considerations for this 2003 example are influenced by engine series lifecycle, avionics generation (Primus-series), and the listed valuation of $2,400,000.
