Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N88CS, is a 2023-built example of the Cessna 560XL family, serial number 560-6351, produced by Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna). The aircraft is owned by TELEPAK NETWORKS INC, a corporation based in Ridgeland, MS, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. As a late-build Citation Excel/XLS-series airframe, N88CS reflects the modern production configuration of the model family and carries the owner/operator identity tied to Ridgeland, Mississippi; no other registry actions or transfers are published in the supplied data.
The airframe is certificated for 13 seats while typical executive layouts in the 560XL/XLS family are operator-dependent and commonly fitted for 8–9 passengers; this particular airframe’s certification allows flexibility between higher-density transport and executive interiors. Avionics fit is consistent with the family’s typical installations, described as Honeywell-series avionics, although the exact suite is operator-specific and may vary from the baseline. Operationally, with a maximum range of 2,110 nm and a cruise speed near 441 kts, the airframe is suited to domestic and transcontinental missions within the continental US and is capable of high-altitude cruise to 45,000 ft for efficient long-leg segments. Maintenance considerations follow the Citation Excel/XLS program norms for twin‑engine turbofan light-cabin business jets and will be influenced by owner/operator utilization patterns.
The Cessna 560XL (Citation Excel / XLS series) occupies the light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering a balance of cabin size, runway performance and operating economy. Powered in this airframe by Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C engines producing 4,119 lbf each, the model competes against light-cabin jets from manufacturers such as Bombardier and Embraer in charter and owner-operator markets. Buyer and charter demand for late-build examples typically reflects preferences for updated avionics and lower time airframes; resale and maintenance considerations for N88CS will therefore be driven by the installed avionics suite, interior configuration choices, and the aircraft’s utilization history under TELEPAK NETWORKS INC.
