Model & Market Context

This entry covers airframe N560WL, a 1998-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel bearing serial number 560-5012. The airframe is recorded as owned by TRES AMIGOS AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Dover, DE, US, and is U.S.-registered. The airframe’s build year and serial place it among late-production Citation Excel-series examples; registration and ownership records indicate operation from a corporate/charter base in Dover, Delaware. No public record of notable incidents is included in the supplied data.

The airplane typically carries an executive cabin layout described as a club plus divan arrangement with a forward galley and an aft lavatory, while higher-density configurations have been reported to accommodate up to 13 occupants. Avionics fit for Excel-series airframes of this vintage is commonly from the Honeywell Primus-series, though the specific installation on N560WL may vary due to retrofit activity over its service life. Typical mission profiles for this airframe combine short- to mid-range corporate transport and on-demand charter operations within its 1,847 nm range and high-speed cruise capability of 429 kts, operating from its Dover base and regional airports. Maintenance considerations follow standard mid-size business jet practices for Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545-powered Citation Excels, with particular attention to engine cycle management and avionics upgrade paths.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel family occupies the light–midsize business jet niche, offering cabin comfort near midsize standards with costs and runway performance closer to light jets. Competing aircraft include late-model light and lower-tier midsize business jets offering similar range and cruise, and buyer and charter demand often favors well-equipped, low-cycle airframes with updated Honeywell avionics. For this 1998 560XL example, maintenance, avionics retrofits and demonstrated ownership/registry history impact resale and charter appeal more than original production pedigree alone.
