Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N560MG is a 1993-built Cessna Citation V, officially Model 560 (Ultra), serial 560-0223. It is registered in the United States and is owned by SONGBIRD AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Nashville, TN, US. The aircraft carries a US registration and, as delivered in 1993, represents an early-1990s Citation V airframe type with subsequent avionics and connectivity upgrades noted in the equipment fit. No additional public registry actions or valuation events are published for this specific airframe in the supplied data.
The aircraft is outfitted as an eight-passenger executive cabin with a forward right-hand aft-facing seat, a mid-cabin four-place club, two aft forward-facing seats, and an aft belted lavatory, while the overall seating capacity is listed as 11. Avionics on this airframe include dual Garmin GTN 750 WAAS/LPV, a Honeywell 5-tube EFIS paired with Honeywell Primus 870 weather radar, and a GTX-345R ADS-B In/Out, augmented by SATCOM and onboard internet via AirCell ST3100 and GoGo ATG-2000. Typical missions for this configuration are short- to medium-range corporate or private shuttle flights within the aircraft’s 1,960 nm range and at cruise speeds near 430 kts, operating from a Nashville, TN base under the owner-operator. The combination of modern navigation, ADS‑B compliance, SATCOM and WiFi supports executive transport and charter-type operations; maintenance and support will follow twin JT15D engine common-practice cycles for this series.
The Cessna Citation V (Model 560, Ultra) occupies the light-to-light-medium business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability on mid-range sectors with a service ceiling of 45,000 ft and efficient cruise performance. With twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5 series engines producing 2,900 lbf each, the type competes with contemporaries in its class for owner-operators and charter operators seeking compact executive cabins and respectable speed-range capability. For a 1993 airframe like N560MG, avionics and connectivity upgrades—such as WAAS/LPV-capable GPS and ADS‑B In/Out—are positive factors for continued operational relevance, while typical market considerations include airframe age, engine overhaul status, and the value impact of installed modern avionics and cabin amenities.
