Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N692AZ is a 2005-built example of the Cessna Citation Sovereign (Model 680), serial 680-0031, manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is owned by BLANCO AIR SERVICES LLC, a corporation based in Houston, TX, US, and is registered in the US. Registered to the corporate owner and operated from its Houston base, this airframe is configured in a nine-passenger executive layout and carries an estimated market value of $5,295,000. Condition highlights reflect a completed factory build in 2005 with continued corporate ownership rather than frequent changes of registry.
The cabin of N692AZ is arranged in a nine-passenger executive layout consisting of a forward side-facing seat, a forward four-place club, an aft four-place club, and an aft lavatory. Avionics are provided by a Honeywell Primus Epic suite with DU-1080 displays and integrated flight management system and EGPWS, supporting precision navigation and enhanced situational awareness for corporate operations. Typical missions for this airframe center on medium- to long-range executive transport consistent with its 2,829 nm range and high-speed cruise capability; its operator base in Houston, TX, US suggests frequent use on domestic and Gulf/Caribbean sectors. Maintenance considerations focus on twin PW306C engine support and avionics lifecycle for the Primus Epic suite in an executive cabin configuration.
As a member of the Citation Sovereign family, the Cessna Citation Sovereign (Model 680) represented a mid-size, transcontinental business jet niche prioritizing runway performance, range, and comfortable cabin arrangements for up to nine passengers. Competing models occupy similar market segments where demand is driven by corporate buyers and charter operators seeking a balance of speed (459 kts), pressurization ceiling (47,000 ft), and a near-3,000 nm range. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include sustained support for Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306C engines and lifecycle upgrades for the Honeywell Primus Epic avionics to maintain marketability at the noted valuation.
