N958GB

The airframe bearing tail number N958GB is a 2004 production Cessna Citation Encore, serial 560-0680, built by Cessna (Textron Aviation Inc.). The airframe is registered in the US and is registered to HAWKEYE ASSET MANAGEMENT & CONSULTING SERVICES LLC, a corporation based in Kilgore, TX, US, which is the documented owner and operator/home base in public registry entries. Notable registry actions include the recorded corporate ownership and valuation entries that list the airframe’s market worth; the aircraft is recorded with a valuation of $4,450,000. As a 2004-model airframe, its condition and value are consistent with mature light-cabin business jets that have completed primary service intervals and are maintained under corporate asset management regimes.

The Cessna Citation Encore airframe N958GB is configured with seating for 11, consistent with light-cabin corporate layouts intended for short- to medium-range executive transport. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include business point-to-point flights up to its 1,760 nm range and high-speed cruise legs near 414 kts, often operating from regional and corporate airports out of its documented base in Kilgore, TX, US. Cabin and avionics specifics for this particular airframe are not published beyond the seating count and model standard; operators of similar encores commonly fit executive furnishings and modernized avionics retrofits. Maintenance considerations for this airframe emphasize engine cycles and life-limited component tracking for its two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW535A engines.

The Cessna Citation Encore (Model 560) occupies the light-cabin, multi-engine business jet niche with a high cruise speed and transcontinental short-range capability, leveraging twin PW535A turbofans producing 3,400 lbf each. Competing models include other late-generation light-cabin jets offering similar ranges and seating, and buyer demand tends to favor well-documented maintenance records and corporate ownership structures like that of HAWKEYE ASSET MANAGEMENT & CONSULTING SERVICES LLC. Resale and maintenance economics for a 2004 Encore center on engine program status, avionics upgrades, and overall cycle life, factors reflected in the aircraft’s recorded valuation of $4,450,000.
