N974QS

This article describes the individual airframe bearing tail number N974QS, a factory-built example of the Cessna 680A Citation Latitude completed in 2025 with serial number 680A0429. The airframe is manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc and is owned by FULL THROTTLE MANAGEMENT LLC, a corporate owner based in Oklahoma City, OK, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft’s registry reflects its status as a current corporate-operated jet valued at $14,900,000, and its build year and ownership establish it as a new-production airframe entering service with a single corporate operator.

The airframe is fitted with a typical executive cabin described as a 7–9-place executive layout featuring a flat floor and approximately 6 ft cabin height; internal baggage capacity for this installation is roughly 127 cu ft, supporting regional to transcontinental trips. Onboard avionics are the manufacturer-standard Garmin G5000, which supports modern flightdeck automation and situational awareness for single-pilot or two-pilot operations in the corporate environment. Operated from Oklahoma City, OK under corporate ownership, the Citation Latitude airframe is well suited to business missions and charter work over its published 2,700 nm range and cruise of 429 kts; maintenance considerations follow standard Textron service intervals for the model and the PW306D1 engines.

The Cessna 680A Citation Latitude family occupies the mid-size, super-midsize segment with a balance of cabin comfort and range that targets owner-operators and charter providers seeking transcontinental capability without large-cabin operating costs. Competing models include light to mid-size business jets that offer similar speed and range; demand often centers on corporate flight departments and fractional/charter operators. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific 2025 airframe focus on engine program enrollment and avionics lifecycle of the Garmin G5000, while the documented valuation of $14,900,000 reflects its new-build status and corporate ownership profile.
