Current market valuation for this specific airframe is estimated at $30,000,000, consistent with late-new-production values for low-hour, contemporary long-range business jets.

The cabin of this particular Longitude is fit in a typical executive layout with a flat-floor, stand-up cabin and is configurable for 8–12 seats; the registration record for N828CL indicates the aircraft is arranged for a maximum of 12 seats. Avionics are specified as Garmin G5000, supporting modern flight-deck automation and enhanced situational awareness for long-range corporate operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include transcontinental and intercontinental point-to-point charters or corporate repositioning flights within the aircraft’s 3,500 nm range at cruise speeds near 483 kt. Maintenance considerations follow manufacturer-recommended inspections for HTF7700L-powered Longitudes and lessor-driven maintenance programs common to corporate-owned examples.

The Cessna 700 Citation Longitude occupies the upper end of Textron Aviation’s super-midsize to large-cabin business jet segment, offering a long-range cruise and stand-up cabin in a single-pilot-capable platform when so equipped. Competing models include other long-range super-midsize jets from Gulfstream entry-level and Embraer Praetor/Galaxy-class offerings; the Longitude’s combination of the HTF7700L engines, Garmin G5000 avionics, and a 3,500 nm range targets owner-operators and charter operators seeking transcontinental performance. Buyer and charter demand for low-hours, well-maintained 2020-production examples remains strong, while resale considerations center on engine-time, avionics upgrades, and the maintenance tracking common to corporate-owned registry entries like Sunshine Aviation Capital LLC.
