N1QE2006 Cessna Citation Sovereign

Overview

This airframe, registered as N1QE, is a 2006-built Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign with serial number 680-0067. The airframe is owned by Apf Development II LLC, an LLC based in Naples, FL, US, and is registered in the US registry. The aircraft’s documented history centers on its single corporate ownership structure and typical corporate operation from a Florida base; no additional owners or lease actions are recorded in the supplied data. The airframe’s year and configuration place it among mid-2000s Sovereigns commonly used for executive transport and charter operations.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin of this specific airframe is configured in a typical executive layout: double-club seating for eight plus a side-facing seat, yielding an 8-9 pax executive arrangement with a forward galley and an enclosed lavatory. Avionics fit for the aircraft is the Honeywell Primus Epic (four LCD displays) suite, supporting advanced flight-management and situational-awareness capabilities appropriate to corporate operations. Operationally, the Sovereign’s long-range capability of 2,920 nm and cruise speed of 459 kts enable nonstop rotations across much of North America and trans-Caribbean missions from its Florida base; typical missions would be corporate point-to-point transport or on-demand charter. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow the Pratt & Whitney PW306C engine line maintenance practices and avionics support for the Honeywell Primus Epic suite.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna 680 Citation Sovereign occupies a mid-size, super-midsize performance niche offering transcontinental range with high single-pilot capability when equipped. Competing models in similar roles include other super-midsize cabin jets from rival manufacturers offering comparable ranges and cruise speeds; buyers typically seek the Sovereign for its combination of cabin comfort and runway performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2006 Sovereign like N1QE emphasize engine program status for the PW306C units and avionics condition of the Honeywell Primus Epic displays when assessing market demand for corporate or charter operators.
