N901QS

This entry documents airframe N901QS, a 2022-built Cessna 680A Citation Latitude with serial number 680A0307 manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. The aircraft is owned by GRATUS FLIGHTS LLC (a corporation based in Oklahoma City, OK, US), and operates on a United States registration. The airframe entered service in 2022 and is currently listed with an estimated market value of $16,250,000; ownership and registry details are recorded under the U.S. registry and show no public record of subsequent transfers. Condition highlights reflect a modern, late-production Citation Latitude equipped to fractional or corporate operations.

The cabin of N901QS features a flat-floor, stand-up layout configured in a typical executive club arrangement accommodating 8–10 passengers, commonly installed as 8 seats in fractional configurations. Avionics are supplied by a Garmin G5000 integrated flight deck, supporting advanced navigation and automated flight management tailored for business and charter missions. Typical operations for this airframe include medium- to long-range corporate point-to-point travel across North America, leveraging a 2,700 nm range and high cruise speed of 446 kts for efficient regional and transcontinental sectors. Maintenance considerations reflect Pratt & Whitney Canada PW300-series engine support and standard Citation airframe service schedules appropriate to a 2022 model with active corporate use.

The Cessna 680A Citation Latitude occupies the mid-size business jet niche, offering a balance of transcontinental range, a stand-up cabin and Garmin G5000 avionics for modern flight decks. Competing models in the segment include offerings from Embraer and Bombardier that target similar passenger counts and mission profiles; the Latitude’s combination of cabin volume and a 45,000 ft ceiling supports competitive charter and owner-operator demand. For buyers and fleet operators, recent-production examples such as 680A0307 command premiums tied to onboard systems and low-time engines; resale and maintenance planning should consider PW306D1 engine support lifecycle and prevailing market valuation near $16.25M for comparable late-model airframes.
