N822QS

The airframe bearing registration N822QS is a 2021-built Cessna 700 Citation Longitude with serial number 700-0060. It is manufactured by Textron Aviation (Cessna) and currently owned by SKLA LLC, a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US. The aircraft is U.S.-registered and appears in civil records reflecting its factory build year and ownership by a corporate entity; FAA registry entries note a 14-seat configuration that differs from manufacturer-typical executive layouts. Valuation data list the airframe at approximately $23,000,000, indicating late-model market value for this configuration.

The cabin for this specific airframe is described as a typical executive layout supporting an 8–12 passenger executive arrangement, while the manufacturer lists a maximum of 12 occupants and FAA registry information records 14 seats, a discrepancy notable for operators and regulators. Avionics are fitted with the Garmin G5000 integrated flight deck, supporting modern avionics capabilities for long-range corporate missions. Operated from a U.S. corporate base tied to SKLA LLC in Oklahoma City, the airframe’s 3,500 nm range and 483 kt cruise speed suit transcontinental and extended domestic missions, commonly flown in executive transport, charter, or corporate shuttle roles. Maintenance considerations for this airframe include standard Honeywell HTF7700L support programs and Garmin avionics lifecycle management in line with owner/operator corporate policies.

The Cessna 700 Citation Longitude occupies the super-midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental range and high cruise speeds relative to light and midsize jets. With thrust ratings of 7,665 lbf per engine and a ceiling of 45,000 ft, the model competes against aircraft in the super-midsize category where buyers and charter operators seek range, speed, and cabin comfort. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2021 airframe factor in recent avionics (Garmin G5000), current engine type (Honeywell HTF7700L), and documented seating configuration differences between manufacturer specifications and FAA registry records.
