Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N654WA, is a 2024-built Cessna Citation XLS+ with serial number 560-6363. The airframe is owned and operated by the corporate operator Winchester Air Inc of Winchester, MA, US, and carries United States registration. Entered service in 2024 under Winchester Air Inc and has remained on that corporate U.S. registry since delivery. The airframe is assessed at an approximate market value of $9,490,000, reflecting a current-condition valuation for a late-production XLS+ equipped to typical executive standards.
The cabin of N654WA is configured in a typical executive club layout seating 8–9 passengers with a refreshment center and an enclosed lavatory, matching the common XLS+ interior arrangement for corporate missions. Avionics are fitted in the Collins Pro Line 21 typical XLS+ configuration, supporting advanced flight management and situational awareness for high-utilization charter or corporate operation. Based in Winchester, Massachusetts, the operator conducts missions consistent with the XLS+ mission profile: short- to medium-range transcontinental hops, high-cruise-speed regional trips, and point-to-point corporate shuttle flights within the aircraft’s 2,100 nm capability. Routine maintenance considerations reflect the twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C engines and the Pro Line 21 suite, which together drive scheduled engine shop visits and avionics support aligned with Textron Aviation service networks.
The Cessna Citation XLS+ (560XL) family occupies a performance niche as a midsize, single-pilot-capable business jet offering a combination of high cruise speed—441 kts in this example—comfortable executive cabin layouts, and competitive operating economics. Competing models include other midsize turbofan business jets in the 560–2,500 nm class, and demand remains steady among corporate buyers and charter operators seeking a balance of range and cabin comfort. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on verified maintenance records, engine hours on the PW545C powerplants, and the retained value indicated by the $9,490,000 estimate.
