RESEARCH NOTES
About N18GY
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
The aircraft bearing registration N18GY is a 2006-built business jet, a Cessna 560XL (Citation Excel/XLS) with manufacturer listed as Cessna (Textron Aviation) and serial number 560-5600. The airframe is owned by Fair Deal Leasing LLC, an LLC based in Omaha, NE, US, and it is registered in the US. The combination of a mid-2000s build year and the XLS/Excel configuration places this specific airframe squarely in the mature pre-owned market for light-cabin business jets, with the owner recorded as a leasing company rather than an operator or private individual. No additional public registry events or transfers are recorded in the supplied data.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin is fitted in a typical executive layout with 8-13 passenger club seating, a forward galley, and an aft lavatory, reflecting the Citation Excel/XLS interior arrangement that balances passenger comfort with light-cabin performance. Avionics for this airframe are the typical Honeywell Primus 1000 fit found on XLS/Excel variants, supporting standard IFR and business-aviation mission avionics requirements. Operating profiles for this airframe would commonly include short- to medium-haul corporate or charter sectors within its published 1,847 nm range and high-cruise-speed profile, operating from the owner’s likely US-based network out of Omaha, NE. Maintenance considerations follow Pratt & Whitney Canada PW500-series engine programs and the XLS airframe checks typical for a 2006 serial.
Model & Market Context
The Cessna 560XL (Citation Excel/XLS) family occupies the light-medium cabin business jet niche, offering a blend of cabin volume, runway performance, and single-pilot capability in many configurations. With a cruise near 429 kts and service ceiling to 45,000 ft, the type competes with contemporaries in the super-light to light-cabin sector; demand from buyers and charter operators remains linked to lifecycle maintenance status, avionics fit such as the Honeywell Primus 1000, and engine program costs for the PW545B powerplant. Resale considerations for a 2006 serial like 560-5600 are driven by interior condition, maintenance records, and remaining contractual engine/airframe time between overhauls.
