N560PY

This entry concerns airframe N560PY, a factory-built Cessna 560 Citation V with serial number 560-0034. The airframe is currently registered in the US and is noted on registry records as owned by OLD SOUTH CONSTRUCTION OF TENNESSEE LLC of Franklin, TN, US. Listings and registry data indicate typical corporate/charter use and a market valuation of $1,800,000, with condition and configuration details described in sales listings rather than formal manufacturer records. No additional build year or prior-owner chronology is published in the supplied data.

The aircraft is configured in a nine-passenger executive cabin as reported on listings, featuring dual 4-place club seating, dual refreshment centers, and a belted lavatory seat for flexible passenger arrangements. Avionics are listed as a JetTech Garmin NextGen package: dual G700 TXi, dual GTN-750Xi, dual GTX-3000 transponders (ADS‑B), Garmin GWX-70 weather radar, TAWS/TCAS and a Sperry SPZ-500 autopilot, supporting modern situational awareness and navigation standards for business operations. Typical missions for this airframe would be short- to mid-range corporate transport within its published range of 1,960 nm, operating from the owner/operator base in Franklin, TN, US, and serving point-to-point executive travel or on-demand charter. Maintenance considerations follow the Citation V fleet norms, with avionics and autopilot upgrades noted on listings potentially affecting inspection and avionics log continuity.

The Cessna 560 Citation V occupies the light-medium business jet segment, offering moderate transcontinental capability with a cruise near 430 kts and service ceiling to 45,000 ft, positioning it as a step up from entry-level light jets but below larger midsize platforms. Competitors typically include late-model midsize and long-legged light jets offering similar speed and range; buyer demand focuses on cabin utility, operating economics, and avionics modernization as seen in this airframe’s JetTech Garmin NextGen fit. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial include the airframe’s age-related maintenance items, engine times on Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5A units, and market valuation at $1,800,000, all influential in buyer and charter operator decisions.
