RADAR ESTIMATE

What N143CG is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna Citation Excel on its own yet, so this borrows the Cessna Citation XLS+ curve, scales it to N143CG's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N143CG

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This airframe, registered as N143CG, is a 2002-built Cessna Citation Excel (560XL) with serial number 560-5273. It is owned by CGG Aviation LLC, a corporate owner based in Marshfield, MA, US, and operates on a US civil registration. Ownership by CGG Aviation LLC and its Marshfield home base are the principal recorded organizational details for this hull.

Operations & Cabin

This specific 560XL is configured in an executive 8-passenger layout consistent with factory 560XL arrangements, typically featuring a four-place club seating arrangement, a forward refreshment center, and a belted aft lavatory as the cabin baseline. The avionics fit is the Honeywell Primus 1000 as originally typical for the 560XL, though individual upgrades may be present on this airframe. Operationally, the aircraft’s performance, with a cruise of 373 kts and a range of 1,657 nm, suits regional to transcontinental executive missions and on-demand charter or company transport from its Marshfield, MA base. Maintenance considerations align with twin-PW545A support and executive interior upkeep; the valuation reflects age, installed equipment, and typical 560XL service history.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna Citation Excel (560XL) occupies the midsize light-medium business jet niche, balancing cabin comfort and short-field performance with efficient PW545A powerplants. In market terms, it competes with contemporaries offering similar range and cabin arrangements; buyer and charter demand often centers on aircraft with upgraded avionics or well-documented maintenance records. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its 2002 build year, installed Honeywell Primus 1000 baseline, and the documented corporate ownership that can affect perceptions of use and care.
