N818BL

The airframe bearing tail number N818BL is a 2003-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel with manufacturer serial 560-5328, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is US-registered and owned by BRENMAR CORP, a corporation based in Lawrenceville, GA, US; it is commonly recorded in the registry as operating from that home base. The aircraft’s registry indicates routine corporate operation rather than airline or public charter service, and its market valuation is listed at $3,500,000, reflecting typical mid-life pricing for the type. Notable registry actions include its continued US registration under N818BL and corporate ownership retention by BRENMAR CORP.

The aircraft is certified for 13 seats on the registry while operator-fitted cabins for this airframe typically use an executive layout of eight to nine places, so actual in-service seating is commonly reduced for increased comfort and amenities. Avionics fit for the type vary by retrofit and series; this airframe is representative of installations that may include Honeywell Primus or Collins Pro Line 21 suites depending on upgrade history. Typical mission profiles for N818BL would include short- to medium-range corporate transport and on-demand point-to-point business travel within its 1,858 nm range and cruise speed near 441 kt, operating out of its Lawrenceville, GA, base. Maintenance considerations for this individual airframe align with corporate-operator schedules and PW545 engine maintenance cycles.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel occupies the light-medium corporate jet niche between entry-level light jets and larger midsize jets, offering a balance of cabin size and runway performance. Competing models include other midsize cabin-carrying jets with similar range and cruise profiles; buyer and charter demand for well-maintained 2003-series XLS/Excel airframes remains steady in the pre-owned market. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe center on engine time and any avionics retrofits (Honeywell Primus / Collins Pro Line 21 variations), cabin reconfiguration from the certified 13-seat layout to executive arrangements, and the aircraft’s documented corporate ownership and US registration.
