Cessna Citation Encore

Listing-based estimates for the 17 Citation Encores on Radar run from about $1.7M to $3.9M, with a middle estimate of $3.1M. They are rough estimates from public listings and market reports, not appraisals.

What moves the price of any one Citation Encore: total time and engine time, engine program enrollment, damage history, avionics and equipment, and complete logbooks. Build year sets the baseline; a Citation Encore with high hours, an engine near overhaul or gaps in its records sells below it, and one with low time, recent inspections and full records above it.

Radar does not list aircraft for sale. It tracks all 185 US-registered Citation Encores by tail number, each with its registration record and a value estimate, so you can check a listing against the value of its build year and look up the aircraft's own history before you call.

185 Citation Encores are on the US civil aircraft register (FAA file of October 2026), built 2000 to 2011. Aircraft registered in other countries are not counted. Radar has a page for each US registration.

The Citation Encore's published range is 1,760 nautical miles (2,025 statute miles), with nBAA IFR reserves, 100 nm alternate (Cessna 2005 brochure, Encore+, preliminary data). Winds, payload, cruise speed and the reserves a flight carries change what a given trip can do.

The Citation Encore cruises at up to 428 knots true airspeed (about 493 mph), and its maximum operating Mach number is 0.75, as published for the Cessna Citation Encore+.

1,447 lb/hr (213 US gal/hr), as Cessna publishes it for the Cessna Citation Encore+ (citation Encore at FL350, 13,000 lb, 430 KTAS (Cessna performance table)). Block fuel for a real trip is higher: taxi, climb, weight, altitude and winds all add to it.

The Citation Encore is certified to 45,000 feet for the Cessna Citation Encore+. Heavy aircraft climb there in steps as they burn fuel.

Up to 11 passengers, the most the type is published for (Cessna Citation Encore+). Many aircraft are completed with fewer, larger seats, so a given Citation Encore may seat fewer.

Radar covers the Citation Encore (built 2000 to 2006) and the Citation Encore+ (built 2005 to 2011). They share this page because people search for them as one aircraft; each has its own section with its specs, value and tail numbers.
