It is recorded as owned by PCJ LLC, an LLC based in Carmel, IN, US, and carries a US registration; no public record of alternative operators or notable registry actions beyond the current ownership was provided.

The cabin between pressure bulkheads measures 7.39 m, accommodating a typical executive 8–10 passenger layout; this reflects the standard interior scope for 560XL-configured aircraft and supports executive transport missions. Avionics fit is a typical Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite for the 560XL family, enabling advanced flight management and situational awareness for corporate operations. Given the aircraft’s range of 1,847 nm and cruise speed of 429 kts, common mission profiles include short-haul to transcontinental executive charters and company shuttle flights from the owner’s home base in Carmel, IN, US. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe align with PW545C engine support and XLS-series component commonality; no unique supplemental equipment or modifications were listed.
The Cessna 560XL Citation Excel / XLS (560XL) occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort and efficient short-to-mid range performance; this unit’s 429 kt cruise and 1,847 nm range are representative of that mission set. Competing models in the segment include light-medium jets from manufacturers such as Embraer and Bombardier that offer similar seating and range profiles, and buyer demand often focuses on low-hour engines and modern avionics like the Pro Line 21. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2018 airframe primarily center on PW545C engine shop visit history and the XLS-series airframe/component tracking, factors that typically influence fleet buyers and charter operators.
