Model & Market Context
This airframe, tail number N947EL, is a 1998 Cessna 750 Citation X, serial 750-0047, manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (now Textron Aviation). The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by CX ECHO LIMA LLC, a corporation based in Addison, TX, US, which appears as the operator/home base in registry data. The airframe’s recorded valuation is $3,672,500, and its condition and equipment are reflected in listings noting Honeywell SPZ-650 / Primus avionics variants and an executive interior. No other public notable registry actions are reported in the supplied dataset.
The cabin of N947EL is configured in an executive layout reported as six captain chairs, a two-person sofa and a belted lavatory, consistent with a typical 8–12 pax executive arrangement for the model. Avionics fit is listed as Honeywell SPZ-650 / Honeywell Primus systems (SPZ-650/Primus 650 variants), supporting high-speed, long-range business missions. With a cruise of 528 kts and a range of 3,460 nm, the aircraft is suited to transcontinental missions and high-altitude cruise to FL510, commonly flown by corporate operators based in or operating from Addison, TX. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow Citation X schedules for the AE3007C powerplants and the installed Honeywell avionics suite.
The Cessna 750 Citation X family occupies the long-range, high-speed portion of the business jet market, emphasizing high cruise speed and transcontinental capability; N947EL’s 6,442 lbf AE3007C engines and 51,000 ft ceiling are emblematic of that niche. Competing models in its era included other long-range business jets that trade off speed versus cabin volume; buyers and charter customers for the Citation X commonly prioritize speed and runway performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the age (1998), installed avionics package (SPZ-650/Primus variants), and engine type (Rolls‑Royce AE3007C series), factors that influence refurbishment and avionics modernization decisions on the pre-owned market.
