N827JN

This article covers airframe N827JN, a factory-built Cessna 560XL Citation Excel constructed in 2002 with serial number 560-5223. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by RIM 4 GROUP LLC, a corporation based in Waterford, MI, US, which appears as the current recorded owner. The airframe has a broker-advertised avionics fit and a 2018 interior refurbishment that are notable for valuation and condition assessments. Current estimated market value is $4,150,000.

The cabin of N827JN is configured in an executive nine‑passenger layout with a forward two‑place side‑facing couch, a six‑place main club, and two forward‑facing seats; the fit includes a forward galley and an aft lavatory, with an interior refurbishment completed in 2018. Avionics are listed by the broker as Garmin G5000, with the advertising noting unit-specific fitment; buyers or operators should verify installation status and documentation. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, given its range and cruise, include regional business travel and light charter work across continental sectors. As a corporate-registered aircraft stored under a corporate owner in Waterford, MI, its operational base and usage patterns are consistent with owner/operator business missions and ad hoc charter operations.

The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel family occupies a performance niche between light and midsize business jets, offering cabin comfort and short-field capability with efficient operation. Competing models in the same sector include light-to-midsize jets from manufacturers such as Embraer and Bombardier. For this specific airframe, maintenance and resale considerations hinge on the documented 2018 cabin refurbishment, verified avionics fitment, and engine program status; those factors materially affect marketability and operating cost projections for prospective buyers or charter operators.
