Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N721XL is a 2006-built Cessna Citation XLS (560XL), constructor serial 560-5612, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is owned by AIR SUZ LLC, a corporate entity based in Memphis, TN, US, and is registered on the United States registry. Notable registry actions include its corporate ownership registration in Memphis, and the aircraft carries an estimated market value of $6,100,000 consistent with late-model Citation XLS examples of similar age and configuration. As a 2006 airframe, it reflects mid-2000s build standards and continues to be operated in the fixed-wing multi-engine executive transport category.

This specific 560XL carries the model-typical executive interior: a centre-club layout for eight passengers with a forward galley and aft lavatory, and a total certified seating capacity of 13. Operated from its owner’s base in Memphis, TN, the aircraft is suited to business and private charter missions across medium-to-long U.S. and international routings within its 2,110 nm range and high-speed cruise at 433 kts. Avionics and outfitting are consistent with the Citation XLS family norms for the 2006 production year; operational considerations for this airframe emphasize routine maintenance of the dual PW545B engines and calendar-based systems checks associated with corporate fleet usage.

The Cessna Citation XLS (560XL) occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort and short-field performance with a service ceiling to 45,000 ft. Competing models in its class include late-model offerings from Gulfstream, Embraer Legacy/Phenom derivatives, and Bombardier Challenger light-jet variants, where buyer and charter demand focus on reliability, operating economics, and cabin amenities. For a 2006 airframe like N721XL, resale and maintenance considerations center on engine time on wing for the PW545B pair, avionics upgrades to maintain charter competitiveness, and documented maintenance history to support its $6.1M valuation.
