N80AE

The airframe bearing tail number N80AE is a 2019-built example of the Cessna Citation 560XL (XLS+), serial 560-6276, manufactured by Textron Aviation (Cessna). The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by Air Eagle LLC, an LLC based in Detroit, MI, US, which serves as the aircraft's operator/home base for its corporate and charter operations. The airframe conforms to the typical XLS+ production standard and carries an estimated market value of $12,000,000; no extraordinary damage history or notable registry penalties are indicated in the supplied data. Current ownership by Air Eagle LLC reflects a single-entity corporate registration rather than individual private ownership.

This airframe is typically outfitted in an executive cabin layout seating 8–9 passengers, although it is certified for up to 13 seats, allowing flexible combinations of corporate transport, short-haul charter, or ad hoc group movements. The avionics suite conforms to the Collins Pro Line 21 fit common on XLS+ models, supporting modern flight management, weather, and situational awareness capabilities for crewed operations. With a cruise speed of 441 kts and a 2,100 nm range, the aircraft is well suited to continental U.S. point-to-point missions from its Detroit base, regional business hops, and light charter work; its twin PW545C engines offer balanced fuel efficiency and climb performance. Routine maintenance considerations follow XLS+ schedules for PW500-series engines and Pro Line 21 avionics support programs.

The Cessna Citation 560XL (XLS+) family occupies the light midsize business jet niche, offering cabin comfort near larger midsize types while maintaining relatively low operating costs. With a top certified ceiling of 45,000 ft and typical cruise speeds above 430 kts, the XLS+ competes with models such as the Embraer Legacy 450/500 and smaller Gulfstream or Bombardier light-midsize variants in charter and corporate markets. Buyer and charter demand generally favors well-equipped, low-time XLS+ examples; resale and maintenance considerations emphasize PW545C service life, avionics support for Collins Pro Line 21, and the airframe’s documented configuration and refurbishments.
