The cabin of this Cessna 560XL Citation XLS airframe follows the typical executive club layout for the XLS-series, accommodating a forward galley/refreshment center and an enclosed lavatory within an 8–9 passenger executive arrangement while retaining a certified seating count of 13. Avionics installed are typical for XLS-series installations, listed as Honeywell Primus 1000 / Honeywell-based EFIS, supporting modern cockpit situational awareness and common charter/operator fleet standards. Typical missions for this airframe include short- to mid-range executive transport within its 2,100 nm range and high-speed cruise at about 433 kts, operating from the owner’s base region in Kinston, NC, US and nearby corporate or charter routes. Maintenance considerations align with medium-cabin Citation practices, particularly engine and avionics checks for the PW545B and Honeywell EFIS suite.

The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS occupies the medium-light executive jet niche, offering trans-regional capability with a service ceiling of 45,000 ft and cruise speeds competitive in its class. Competing models typically include light-to-midsize corporate jets with similar range and cabin comfort; buyers and charter operators prize the XLS for its cabin utility and proven Pratt & Whitney Canada PW500-series engines. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2008 XLS emphasize engine time, avionics upgrades (notably Honeywell Primus 1000-era systems), and the airframe’s logbook-backed operator history as provided by corporate lessor ownership.
