N975QS

N975QS is a 2025 Cessna Citation Latitude (Model 680A), serial 680A0430, registered in the United States with registration actions in June 2025. The registration is listed as co‑owned/fractional and the registrant has elected privacy under the FAA display rules; the certificate issue date for the current assignment is 2025-06-06 and the airworthiness date is 2025-05-06.

The 680A Latitude is a mid‑size, flat‑floor business jet with a typical 9‑passenger executive layout and a class‑leading 6.0 ft cabin height; standard avionics are the Garmin G5000 integrated suite and the aircraft is powered by two Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306D1 turbofan engines (5,907 lbf each). Typical mission profiles are regional to transcontinental trips (up to ~2,700 nm) with a maximum cruise near 446 ktas and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft. For this registration the FAA lists 10 seats on the certificate while the factory specification cites a 9‑seat maximum cabin; the registration is assigned to a new 2025 airframe (680A0430).

The Citation Latitude (Model 680A) occupies Cessna's midsize segment between the XLS+ and Sovereign/Longitude families and is offered with a flat floor, generous baggage (≈127 cu ft) and long‑range capability (manufacturer published maximum range 2,700 nm). The Latitude is frequently acquired by fractional and charter operators because of its cabin volume, short‑field capability and modern G5000 avionics. The tail N975QS was previously used on an older Citation X airframe (2002 serial 750‑0175) but that airframe has since been re‑registered to a different N‑number; the current N975QS is the 2025 Latitude airframe.
