N777LX

This article covers airframe N777LX, a 2007-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel/XLS with manufacturer's serial number 560-5736. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by FRONTENAC PROPERTIES INC, a corporation based in Chesterfield, MO, US; the current registration and ownership are the primary recorded administrative details for this specific airframe. The airframe is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada engines and is equipped and marketed in a configuration consistent with Excel/XLS examples. As of the latest registry notes, the airframe carries an estimated market valuation of $6,200,000.

The cabin of N777LX is typically outfitted as an executive interior with an 8–9 passenger center-club arrangement, a forward refreshment center and an enclosed aft lavatory, reflecting the common Excel/XLS executive fit; registry records also note the cabin is configurable to 13 seats. Avionics fit in this airframe is consistent with Honeywell Primus-class installations, with XLS examples typically employing the Primus 1000 suite; this supports typical business-aviation operational profiles. Operationally, the aircraft’s combination of range, speed and cabin capacity positions it for point-to-point corporate transport and on-demand charter missions within the continental U.S. and to nearby international destinations. Maintenance and outfitting considerations reflect standard Excel/XLS practices for engine type, avionics, and interior modularity.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel/XLS occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche, balancing cabin comfort and runway performance with relatively low operating costs for its class. With a cruise of 422 kts and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, it competes with contemporaries in the super-light and light-medium segments. Buyer and charter demand for well-equipped XLS airframes remains linked to interior condition, avionics suites such as the typical Honeywell Primus-class fit, and engine time on the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545B powerplants. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe will hinge on maintenance records, interior refurbishment status, and adherence to the OEM service programs.
