This entry covers airframe N787TY, a 2011-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with serial number 560-6091. The airframe is listed on the U.S. registry and is registered to LIFE LOGISTICS LLC, a Chesterfield, Missouri–based limited liability company.

No additional public record of earlier operators or transfer events is included in the supplied data.
The cabin of N787TY is described as a typical executive club layout accommodating 8–9 passengers in a forward galley and with an aft lavatory, while registry records list the aircraft with 13 seats, indicating flexibility for ferry or corporate transport configurations. Avionics for the airframe align with the fleet-standard Collins Pro Line 21 fit, compatible with XLS/XLS+ retrofit options and supporting conventional corporate operations and IFR mission profiles. With a cruise speed of 429 kts and a range of 2,110 nm, typical missions for the aircraft under ownership by LIFE LOGISTICS LLC would include domestic U.S. charters, business shuttles, and regional hops from its Chesterfield, Missouri locality. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow the Citation Excel series norms, including oversight of PW545C engines and the avionics retrofit pathways.
The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel family occupies the mid-size business jet niche between light jets and larger cabin-class types, offering a balance of runway performance, cabin comfort, and operating economics exemplified by N787TY. Competitors in its segment include other midsize cabin-class jets that prioritize similar range (~2,000+ nm) and cruise speed (~400+ kts), affecting charter demand and private-owner interest. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe center on engine life on the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C powerplants, avionics configuration (Collins Pro Line 21 with XLS/XLS+ retrofit potential), and the airframe’s recorded valuation of $6,943,382, which informs market positioning for buyers or operators seeking a 2011 Excel configured for executive transport.
