N949QS

This airframe, registered as N949QS, is a 2024-built Cessna Citation Latitude (Model 680A) with serial number 680A0382 manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. The jet is held in co-ownership by BRIAR VIEW AVIATION LLC, based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and operates on the U.S. registry. The aircraft’s relatively recent manufacture and single listed owner suggest a short ownership history and modern build standard; there are no published records of prior operators or major registry transfers. Condition indicators for this airframe reflect a new-production late-model Latitude with factory-standard systems and interior configuration.

The airframe is fitted in a typical executive configuration described as an 8–9 place executive layout with a flat floor and 6 ft cabin height, a forward galley and an enclosed lavatory; the aircraft also features a large external baggage compartment of approximately 127 cu ft. Avionics aboard this Latitude follow the common factory fit of Garmin G5000, providing integrated flight decks, touch-control interfaces and advanced navigation and SBAS/RNAV capability appropriate for mixed business and charter operations. Based from Oklahoma City, the aircraft’s performance—especially its long range and transcontinental cruise speed—suits corporate shuttle missions, regional executive transport and on-demand charter work within North America. Maintenance considerations align with Latitude fleet norms (two PW306D1 engines and Garmin G5000 avionics), with operator logistics centralized to support co-ownership scheduling.

The Cessna Citation Latitude (Model 680A) occupies the midsize, flat-floor business jet segment offering transcontinental capability, high cabin comfort and relatively low direct operating costs for its class. It competes with midsize types such as the Embraer Praetor/Legacy family and Bombardier Challenger light-midsize offerings, with buyer demand driven by cabin size, range and single-pilot optionality in similar variants. For resale and charter markets, a 2024-built Latitude like N949QS benefits from modern avionics and warranty periods, while maintenance tracking for PW306-series engines and Garmin systems remains a key resale consideration.
