N560LT

This airframe, registered as N560LT, is a Cessna 560 Citation Encore built in 2000 with serial number 560-0541. The aircraft is owned by LIFE TIME INC, a corporation based in Chanhassen, MN, US, and is operated under a US registration. Public records and the broker listing provide valuation and cabin configuration details; specific historical registry actions are not published. The airframe is valued at $3,500,000 and is presented in an executive layout intended for business transport.

The broker listing for this specific Citation Encore indicates an eight‑passenger executive cabin: a forward aft-facing seat, a mid-cabin four-place club with swivel seating, dual aft forward-facing seats, and a belted aft lavatory. Although the airframe is certificated as an eleven-seat aircraft, the executive configuration prioritizes passenger comfort and mission flexibility for business travel. Typical mission profiles for this example would include medium‑range corporate trips within the aircraft’s 1,960 nm radius and high‑altitude cruise operations up to 45,000 ft at approximately 430 kts. The owner’s base in Chanhassen, MN, US suggests regional operations from Midwest corporate facilities; specific avionics fit and recent maintenance status are not published in the supplied data.

The Cessna 560 Citation Encore occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability for company executives and charter customers that require speed and modest operating costs. Its twin PW535A engines producing 3,400 lbf each deliver the performance needed for higher‑altitude, efficient cruise profiles. In the used market, examples from the 2000 build year compete with contemporaries from manufacturers such as Embraer and Bombardier for buyer and charter demand; resale and maintenance considerations typically focus on engine cycles, avionics upgrades, and interior refurbishment, all of which materially affect valuations around the provided $3,500,000 figure.
