Model & Market Context

This entry concerns airframe N568QS, a 2008-build Cessna 560XL Citation XLS with serial number 560-5829. The aircraft is recorded as owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Columbus, OH, US, and bears a United States registration (US). Owned by NETJETS SALES INC indicates operator-level ownership consistent with fractional or fleet management use; specific past ownership transfers or sale prices are not published. Registry status is listed under the United States registry and no additional public registry actions or condition valuations are published for this airframe.

The airframe configured with 13 seats supports typical short to medium-haul missions within its 2,100 nm range, enabling transcontinental continental or multi-leg regional operations at a cruise speed of 431 kts and service ceiling of 45,000 ft. As an asset recorded under NETJETS SALES INC, the aircraft is likely integrated into a corporate or fractional operator operating structure based out of Columbus, OH, US, where fleet-standard cabin layouts and amenities align with business and charter mission profiles. Maintenance and operational considerations for this specific airframe center on its twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545B engines, each rated at 4,119 lbf, and the routine fleet upkeep practices typical for a 2008-built Citation XLS airframe. Specific avionics fit, interior configuration details, and recent maintenance records for this tail are not published.

The airframe is an example of the Cessna 560XL Citation XLS family produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation), positioned as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet optimized for efficient cruise performance and mid-size cabin seating. With a cruise speed of 431 kts, a practical range of 2,100 nm, and a 13-seat configuration, the model targets operators requiring high-utilization regional to transcontinental capability. Powerplant selection of 2× Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545B engines provides the thrust and reliability characteristics expected of the type; resale and maintenance considerations for this 2008 serial 560-5829 follow the typical fleet-oriented servicing patterns of corporate-owned Citation XLS airframes.
