N646TX

This entry covers airframe N646TX, a 2002-built Cessna 560XL (Citation Excel) with serial number 560-5246, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The jet is owned and operated by KEYSTONE AIR LLC (an LLC based in Miami, FL, US) and is registered in the US. Valued at $4,379,854, the airframe is listed with configuration and avionics details consistent with operator listings and typical Excel equipment fits.

The aircraft is configured in a typical Excel layout and listed by the operator as a seven-passenger center-club arrangement with a right-hand forward side-facing seat, reflecting the seven-seat cabin fit noted in listings despite a maximum complement of 13. Avionics are reported as an integrated Honeywell suite, specifically Honeywell Primus 1000, supporting common IFR and corporate operational profiles. With a maximum cruise of 423 kts and a ferry/mission range of 1,671 nm, this airframe is suitable for short- to mid-range corporate charters and business travel originating from its Miami, FL base under KEYSTONE AIR LLC. Maintenance considerations align with twin PW545 turbofan support and typical Citation Excel inspection and component schedules as indicated by its manufacturer and engine types.

As a member of the Cessna 560XL Citation Excel family, this airframe combines transcontinental-appropriate range and a high single-flight cruise speed for its class, demonstrated by its 1,671 nm range and 423 kts cruise. The twin PW545 engines and 45,000 ft ceiling reflect the performance niche of fast, short- to mid-range corporate transports with moderate seating flexibility (operator-configured seven-passenger cabin within a 13-seat potential). Valuation at $4,379,854 positions this airframe within the used-market tier for early-2000s Citation Excels, with resale and maintenance considerations driven by engine support, avionics configuration (Honeywell Primus 1000), and operator maintenance history.
