N560TV

This article documents the airframe registered as N560TV, a Cessna-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel completed in 2005 with manufacturer serial number 560-5545. The aircraft is held by VERDOORN DARYL R TRUSTEE as a Trust/Co-Ownership based in Saint Paul, MN, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. Certificate and registry records indicate routine ownership custody under the named trustee; no additional operator transitions or notable incident records are published for this specific tail in the provided data. The airframe is valued at $4,200,000, reflecting its mid-2000s build vintage and market position within light-to-mid-size cabin jets.

FAA records list 13 seats for this airframe, though typical executive configurations for the Citation Excel/XLS family are arranged between 8–11 passengers; the specific executive cabin fit for N560TV is not located in the provided documentation. The avionics fit is recorded generically as Honeywell Primus, a common suite for the Excel/XLS series that supports advanced flight management and situational awareness for business operations. With a cruise of 429 kts and a mission range of 1,847 nm, typical operations for this airframe would include medium-haul business travel, charter work, or trust-held private use from the Saint Paul, MN area to regional and transcontinental destinations. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would align with PW545SER engine inspection cycles and Excel-series structural/avionics upgrade paths; no airframe-specific maintenance advisories are cited in the supplied data.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel occupies a niche between light and mid-size business jets, offering a balance of cabin volume, runway performance, and operating economics. With two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545-series turbofans, the model competes against aircraft such as the Bombardier Learjet 60XR and early-generation Hawker midsize types. Buyer and charter demand for 2005-era Excels centers on cost-conscious operators seeking solid performance and common avionics suites like Honeywell Primus; resale and maintenance considerations for N560TV will reflect engine time, avionics status, and interior refurbishment relative to the indicated $4.2M valuation.
