N807JC

The airframe bearing registration N807JC is a Cessna 560 Citation Encore built in 2002 with serial number 560-0602 by Cessna Aircraft Company. The airframe is registered in the US and is currently owned by GWU LLC, an LLC based in Saint James, MO, US; the ownership is recorded in the FAA registry without public indication of multiple prior operators. The airframe’s contemporary estimated market value is $8,273,000, reflecting a 2002-model Encore in civilian corporate configuration. No notable registry actions beyond the current LLC ownership are recorded in the supplied data.

The cabin on this airframe is fitted in an executive club seating arrangement and is described as a typical seven-place executive club layout, while FAA records list up to 11 seats for the type; the discrepancy indicates the aircraft may be configured for mixed executive and auxiliary seating depending on operator requirements. Avionics fit for the model is typically a Honeywell Primus 1000, and many examples also carry a Universal UNS‑1C FMS installation, reflecting common retrofit and mission-fit practices for cockpit navigation and flight management. Based in Saint James, MO, US by ownership, the aircraft’s mission profile is consistent with short to mid‑range corporate and charter operations within the continental United States, leveraging the Encore’s transregional range and high‑speed cruise for frequent point‑to‑point trips. Maintenance considerations align with twin‑jet turbofan servicing and part support for the PW535A engines.

The Cessna 560 Citation Encore occupies the light-to‑midsize business jet niche with performance tailored to operators seeking high cruise speed, single-pilot capability in many configurations, and transregional range; this airframe’s 431 kts cruise and 1,760 nm range reflect that role. Competing models in the same market space typically emphasize similar payload-range tradeoffs; buyer and charter demand for well‑maintained early‑2000s Encores remains driven by operating economics, avionics fit, and engine life. Resale and maintenance considerations are influenced by the health of the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW535A engines, avionics modernization (e.g., Primus 1000 to newer FMS suites), and the aircraft’s logged seating and interior configurations.
