N748W

This entry covers airframe N748W, a 2004-built Cessna Citation 560XL (Citation XLS) with serial number 560-5531. The airframe is listed as owned by the corporation CDMORG INC, registered in Little Rock, Arkansas, and is carried on the US civil register. The airframe's build year and serial place it in the mid-production block of the Excel/XLS family, and its assessed monetary value is $3,000,000. No public record of prior owners or notable incident history is provided in the supplied data.

The cabin configuration for this airframe follows the typical executive layout for the Excel/XLS family, offering an 8–13 passenger executive interior with common options such as club seating and a divan; the aircraft is configured to accommodate up to 13 seats in total. Avionics fit is typical of Excel/XLS retrofits and factory options, noted as a Honeywell Primus-series installation, supporting modern flight management, communications, and approach capabilities appropriate to corporate and charter missions. With a maximum cruise around 422 kts and a range of 1,657 nm, the aircraft is well suited to short- to medium-haul executive travel, regional charter operations, and point-to-point business flights often originating from its Little Rock home base. Maintenance considerations for this individual airframe would follow standard OEM schedules for the PW545-series engines and typical avionics support for Honeywell Primus systems.

The Cessna Citation 560XL (Citation XLS) occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort, transcontinental capability, and field performance. With 2× PW545-series engines producing 3,804 lbf each, the type delivers climb and cruise performance enabling operations up to 45,000 ft, which supports efficient cruise profiles and favorable fuel burn for its class. Competing models in the era include light-medium jets from manufacturers such as Bombardier and Embraer; buyers and charter operators value XLS airframes for their combination of a commodious executive cabin and relatively low trip costs. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include airframe age (2004 build), engine time on the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545 family, and avionics configuration when assessing marketability against newer-generation competitors.
