Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N560HN, is a 1998-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel (560XL) with serial number 560-5015. It is recorded in public materials as owned by IFA HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC based in Washington, DC, US, and is U.S.-registered. No additional public ownership transfers or notable registry actions are listed in the provided data; the broker sheet does not detail an operator change or a historic incident. The airframe is valued in the provided record at $3,000,000, with condition and equipment summarized in brokerage and registry entries rather than a full maintenance log.

The cabin for this aircraft type is described as the typical Excel executive fit, and the FAA registry lists certification for up to 13 seats; brokerage materials note typical layouts of 7–9 executive seats but do not specify the exact configuration for this serial. Avionics and onboard systems recorded for this airframe include Honeywell TCAS II, Universal TAWS, and a Collins Airshow 400 entertainment system; primary EFIS on Excel-series examples is commonly Honeywell Primus 1000, though the broker sheet does not definitively list the installed primary EFIS for this specific airframe. Operationally, the Citation Excel is used for short- to medium-haul business transport, matching the aircraft’s 1,847 nm range and 429 kt cruise for typical point-to-point corporate or charter missions from its U.S. base. Maintenance considerations follow Pratt & Whitney PW545-series program requirements and Excel-series airframe cycles as reflected in brokerage summaries rather than detailed log excerpts.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel (560XL) sits in the light-medium business jet niche offering a balance of cabin size, single-pilot capability in many configurations, and mid-range performance. Competing models in its era include light-medium twins from other manufacturers that target similar mission profiles and charter demand. Market and resale considerations for this specific 1998 airframe hinge on documented avionics fit, maintenance status, and interior configuration, with valuation at $3,000,000 reflecting age, equipment, and certification capacity for up to 13 seats.
