Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N680ML, is a 2014-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign+ with serial number 680-0525. It is owned by RIO GRANDE HELICOPTERS INC, a corporation based in Dover, DE, US, and is registered in the United States. The airframe presents as a factory Sovereign+ example with Garmin G5000 avionics and an executive cabin; its market valuation is listed at $11,700,000. Registration and ownership are recorded to RIO GRANDE HELICOPTERS INC in Dover, DE, US.
The airframe is configured with an executive 9-place cabin typical of the Sovereign+ layout, accommodating approximately nine passengers with a forward galley and a belted lavatory, and offering about 135 cu ft of baggage capacity. Avionics are the Garmin G5000 suite as fit on Sovereign+ models, supporting modern flight-deck automation and situational awareness. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include domestic and transcontinental business trips within its approximately 3,190 nm range and high-speed cruise around 460 kts, operating from its US registry base. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft follow Sovereign+ schedules for PW306D-powered airframes and are influenced by the airframe’s 2014 manufacture year and recorded ownership status.
The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign+ occupies the mid-size, high-performance business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort, transcontinental range, and runway performance. Competitors in its class include other mid-size jets offering similar range and speed while differing in cabin volume and avionics fit. Buyer and charter demand for a 2014 Sovereign+ commonly reflects interest in proven reliability, Garmin G5000-equipped flight decks, and lifecycle costs associated with PW306D engines. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on logbook completeness, engine cycles on the PW306D pair, and remaining calendar-based maintenance intervals relative to the listed valuation.
