Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N562HC, is a 2003-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with serial number 560-5350. The aircraft is listed as owned by H2C Air LLC, a corporate operator based in Cincinnati, OH, US, and carries a United States registration (US). Its recorded retail valuation is $3,295,000, reflecting its 2003 manufacture date and typical mission equipment; no public notes of major registry actions or incidents are provided in the supplied data. The airframe is presented as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet in corporate inventory with standard completion variability.
The cabin is described as a typical executive layout with a nominal 9–11 place executive seating arrangement, a forward galley/refreshment area and an aft lavatory; the provided data notes that the exact configuration varies by completion but the airframe has been outfitted for corporate transport. Avionics are typically the original fit of Honeywell Primus 1000, though retrofit updates may be performed on a per-aircraft basis. Operated from Cincinnati, OH by H2C Air LLC, the aircraft’s performance—mid‑size range and 429 kt cruise—suits regional to transcontinental corporate missions and charter sectors. Maintenance considerations implied by the equipment include scheduled airframe and engine checks for the PW545A powerplants and possible avionics upgrades to maintain certificated navigation and airline‑style dispatch reliability.
The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel occupies the light‑to‑mid‑size business jet niche with a balance of runway performance, cabin comfort and operating economics; the 2003 example here aligns with many fleet operators who value the Excel for short to mid‑range point‑to‑point missions. Competing models in its era include other light-to-midsize business jets offering similar payload-range tradeoffs. For buyers and charter operators, considerations include PW545A engine maintenance history and potential avionics modernization from the original Honeywell Primus 1000, both factors that materially affect resale value and lifecycle operating costs.
