N589QS

This airframe, registered N589QS, is a 2008-built Cessna 560XL (Citation XLS) bearing serial number 560-5810. It is owned by NETJETS SALES INC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and operates in NetJets fractional/managed service configurations. The aircraft carries a United States registration and has been common in NetJets executive service with executive club seating layouts rather than the full-certification maximum. Valuation and specific condition reports for this airframe are not published.

In NetJets service this airframe is commonly fitted with executive club seating configured for 7–8 passengers, while the type certificate lists a maximum of 13 seats; the cabin layout reflects operator mission emphasis on corporate and fractional travel. The installed avionics suite is the Collins Pro Line 21, a common OEM fit for the XLS/XLS+ platform, with in-service upgrade programs available to modernize systems as needed. Typical mission profiles leverage the airframe’s short-to-medium range capability — up to 1,858 nm at cruise speeds near 441 kts and a 45,000 ft ceiling — supporting point-to-point business travel and regional international hops from the owner/operator base in Oklahoma City. Maintenance planning for this specific airframe will reflect the twin PW545B engines’ shop visit cycles and any avionics upgrade paths chosen under NetJets fleet programs.

The Cessna 560XL (Citation XLS) as produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation) occupies the midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental-capable cruise and a 45,000 ft service ceiling suited to corporate and fractional ownership models. The combination of the PW545B powerplants, Pro Line 21 avionics baseline, and flexible seating makes airframes like N589QS attractive to fractional operators and corporate fleets; however, resale and maintenance considerations hinge on the airframe’s installed configuration, engine cycles, and any avionics upgrade history recorded during NetJets stewardship.
