N942JS

This entry covers airframe N942JS, a 2005-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with manufacturer designation Cessna (Textron Aviation) and serial number 680-0033. The airframe is recorded as owned by FE 33 LLC of Kinston, NC, US, and is U.S.-registered. The airframe carries a market valuation of $5,850,000 and is maintained in the fixed-wing multi-engine business jet category; specific maintenance records and condition notes are not published here. Ownership under FE 33 LLC in Kinston, North Carolina represents the documented operator/owner on the current registry.

This airframe is configured in the typical executive layout described for the Sovereign family, an 8–9 place executive layout with forward galley and enclosed lavatory in the executive club seating variant, supporting up to 9 occupants in executive transport missions. The avionics fit is the common Honeywell Primus EPIC suite, reflecting the typical Sovereign fit and providing integrated flight management, dual- or triple-redundant flight displays, and modern radio/navigation capabilities for regional and continental missions. With a long-range capability of 2,820 nm and a cruise speed of 459 kts, this airframe is suited to transcontinental US flights, business shuttles, and owner-operator missions from its base area in Kinston, NC, US. Routine maintenance and inspections follow the manufacturer’s schedules for the Cessna 680 type and the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306C engines; specific maintenance status for this serial is not published here.

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies a mid-to-large cabin super-midsize niche within the business jet market, offering a balance of runway performance, cabin comfort, and transcontinental range. Typical competitors include similarly sized jets offering 2,000–3,000 nm range and comparable cruise speeds; buyer demand is driven by corporate and private owner-operator markets. The aircraft’s value of $5,850,000 reflects age, avionics fit such as Honeywell Primus EPIC, engine model PW306C, and configured cabin; resale and maintenance considerations emphasize engine shop visit status, avionics upgrades, and interior condition for the executive layout.
