N789JS

This airframe, registered as N789JS, is a Cessna 560 Citation Encore+ built in 2008 with serial number 560-0801. The aircraft is owned by FE ENCORE 801 LLC, a corporation based in Kinston, NC, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe is a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet in typical operational condition for its class and carries an estimated market valuation of $4,000,000. No additional notable registry actions beyond corporate ownership have been published.

The aircraft is typically outfitted in an executive layout, consistent with common Encore+ configurations, providing a 7–9 passenger executive cabin and often including a belted lavatory seat. Avionics are reported as part of the Collins Pro Line family (Pro Line 21 reported in Encore+ listings), supporting integrated flight management, navigation, and multi-function displays suitable for business operations. Based in Kinston, North Carolina under corporate ownership, missions for this airframe are most often short- to medium-range business or charter flights up to the published maximum range of 1,760 nm, capitalizing on a high-speed cruise of 426 kts and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft. Maintenance considerations align with twin-PW500-series engine programs and avionics support for the Collins Pro Line suite.

The Cessna 560 Citation Encore+ occupies the light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering higher cruise speeds and extended range compared with earlier Citation variants while maintaining single-pilot capability in many configurations. Primary competitors include later-model light-to-midsize jets with similar range and cabin comfort; demand is often driven by owner-operators and small charter companies. Resale considerations for this 2008 airframe reflect airframe hours, engine program status for the PW535B units, and the avionics fit (Pro Line 21 family), with a reported value around $4,000,000 influencing buyer and operating-cost evaluations.
