Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N88AF, is a 2008-built Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ bearing serial number 560-6004. The airframe is owned by NOWER1 LLC, a Delaware limited liability company based in Dover, DE, US, and carries a United States registration. The aircraft’s operational records show it as a standard corporate-operated Citation XLS+ with typical registry activity for a U.S.-based corporate owner; notable actions include its U.S. registration and retention in corporate service. Current market valuation for this specific airframe is estimated at $6,166,507, reflecting its year, equipment fit and typical condition for a 2008 XLS+.

The aircraft is fitted in a typical 8-place executive layout with a conference divan, forward galley and an enclosed lavatory, while the cabin configuration nominally supports up to 13 certified seats and accommodates roughly 90 cubic feet of baggage. Avionics are provided by the Collins Pro Line 21 suite, supporting common corporate IFR operations and enabling efficient long-range mission capability. With a listed range of 2,100 nm and cruise speed near 441 kts, this airframe is routinely employed on medium-haul corporate missions and charter flights between U.S. business centers and regional international points. Maintenance considerations align with the Citation XLS+ family norms—Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C engine support and Pro Line 21 avionics servicing are central to ongoing operating readiness for this unit.

The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin comfort and short-field performance for corporate operators. Competing types include midsize jets that offer similar cruise speeds and ranges; resale and buyer demand remain influenced by avionics fit, engine hours on the PW545C pair and cabin configuration. For this airframe, the Collins Pro Line 21 installation and the eight-place executive interior are favorable for charter and corporate use, while the estimated value of $6,166,507 reflects market expectations for a 2008 XLS+ in typical corporate configuration.
