N864QS

This entry covers airframe N864QS, a Cessna 700 Citation Longitude built by Textron Aviation Inc in 2024 with serial number 700-0116. The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by Big Sky Management Company LLC (c/o NetJets Sales Inc), listed as Co-Owned (Fractional) and associated with Oklahoma City, OK, US as operator/home base. Registry records indicate a fractional ownership structure and standard NetJets/fractional management rather than a sole private owner; no sale or deregistration events are published. The airframe's reported market value is $28,345,000, consistent with new-production long-range super-midsize cabin pricing.

The airframe carries a 14-place certification and is outfitted in a NetJets/fractional configuration, indicating a high-density, revenue-oriented cabin fit typical of fractional fleet deployment. Avionics are specified as Garmin G5000, supporting advanced flight management, synthetic vision, and integrated autopilot functions tailored to this model’s mixed long-range and high-utilization missions. Typical mission profiles for this specific aircraft would include transcontinental and intercontinental legs within its 3,500 nm range at a cruise of 483 kts, operating from its fractional operator base in Oklahoma City, OK, US. Maintenance considerations reflect factory-new 2024 build status and type support from Textron and Honeywell for the HTF7700L engines, with fractional operations driving structured scheduled maintenance and component pooling.

The Cessna 700 Citation Longitude occupies the super-midsize to large-cabin niche, offering long-range capability with a 45,000 ft ceiling and competitive cruise speed for its class. It competes with other long-range business jets in buyer and charter demand by balancing cabin capacity (this airframe’s 14-place certification) with efficient HTF7700L engines. For fractional operators and buyers, resale considerations center on maintenance provenance, fractional program records, and avionics fit—here, Garmin G5000 enhances desirability. Given the listed $28,345,000 value and 2024 manufacture date, this airframe represents current-production market positioning with expected manufacturer support and established aftermarket pathways.
