N800RB

The airframe bearing tail number N800RB is a 2005-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign, serial 680-0030, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by RMB AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Bossier City, LA, US; the current record indicates ongoing private operation from that home base. Maintenance and registry entries reflect this single-owner corporate registration, with no other ownership transfers published in the supplied data. Valued at $5,500,000, the aircraft presents as a mid-decade Sovereign example with standard mission equipment and corporate configuration.

The cabin of N800RB is configured for ten passengers and includes a single right-hand side-facing seat, a four-place club, a right three-place divan opposite two left-hand single forward/aft-facing seats, a forward galley and an aft lavatory, supporting typical corporate transport and short-term executive charters. The flightdeck is equipped with a Honeywell Primus EPIC avionics suite (Honeywell Primus EPIC FMS/EFIS), providing integrated flight management, synthetic vision-capable displays, and modern navigation/communication capabilities appropriate for long-range business routes. With a listed range of 3,010 nm and cruise speed of 459 kts, the aircraft is typically employed on transcontinental missions and selective offshore or international hops from its Louisiana base. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on PW306C engine support and avionics software/updates for the Primus EPIC suite, as would be expected for a 2005-model Citation Sovereign.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies a mid to large-cabin super-midsize niche, offering higher payload-range and cabin comfort than light-cabin jets while remaining more economical to operate than heavy jets. Competing models in its era include variants of the Bombardier Challenger light/midsize offerings and higher-end Gulfstream or late-model large-cabin types at a different price band. Demand for well-equipped Sovereigns like N800RB typically comes from owner-operators and charter operators seeking transcontinental capability without heavy-jet operating costs; resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine shop visits for the Pratt & Whitney PW306C series and avionics condition for the Honeywell Primus EPIC fitment.
