Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N681WA is a 2012 build of the Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+, serial 560-6098, recorded as owned by WONDERFUL CITRUS LLC (an LLC registered in Delano, California, US). The airframe is US-registered and is listed with a market valuation of $8,400,000, reflecting its 2012 build and XLS+ configuration. No detailed public registry transfer history or notable incidents have been published for this individual airframe. The aircraft’s ownership by an LLC based in Delano indicates corporate or private non-airline operation rather than commercial scheduled service.
The aircraft typically features an executive cabin configured for 8–13 passengers with a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory, though specific interior fit for this airframe may vary. Avionics fit is the Collins Pro Line 21 suite as is typical for XLS+ examples, supporting advanced navigation, communications, and situational awareness for business and charter missions. The performance profile — a long-range light corporate jet capable of cruise at 441 kts and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft — makes it well suited to medium-to-long-range corporate hops, executive transport, and ad hoc charter work from its Delano, California base. Maintenance and operational considerations for this airframe align with factory-recommended schedules for the PW545C engines and XLS+ systems; specifics of the airframe’s maintenance status are not published.
The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering a balance of short-field capability, comfortable executive cabin, and transcontinental range in this class. Competing models include other light-to-midsize business jets with similar mission profiles; buyers and charter operators value the XLS+ for its cabin versatility and efficient twin Pratt & Whitney powerplants. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on engine time, avionics configuration (Collins Pro Line 21), and interior refurbishment status, all of which drive valuation toward the listed $8,400,000 figure for a 2012-built example.
