Premium Turbine Inventory: Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ Enters Disassembly at BAS
Posted by Clinton McJenkin on May 26th 2026
There is a certain kind of jet that does not need to act dramatic to be important. The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ is one of them. It is not the loudest thing on the ramp. It is not trying to win a beauty pageant against a swept-wing diva with fuel bills and commitment issues. The XLS+ just shows up, carries people comfortably, gets into useful airports, runs real schedules, and reminds everybody that a business jet does not have to be difficult to be valuable.
Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ Enters BAS Disassembly With High-Demand Fleet Components
There is a certain kind of jet that does not need to act dramatic to be important.
The Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ is one of them. It is not the loudest thing on the ramp.
It is not trying to win a beauty pageant against a swept-wing diva with fuel bills and commitment issues. The XLS+ just shows up, carries people comfortably, gets into useful airports, runs real schedules, and reminds everybody that a business jet does not have to be difficult to be valuable.
Now this 2011 Citation XLS+ is in the BAS turbine shop for disassembly. The flying chapter is closing, but the useful part is very much awake, caffeinated, and ready to support the fleet.

NEW ARRIVAL IN THE BAS TURBINE HANGAR
Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ In Disassembly:
The High-Demand Parts Always Move First
Before we get romantic about the airplane’s place in Citation history, let’s get to the part owners, operators, and maintenance shops actually care about.
This Citation XLS+ is entering BAS disassembly with a useful spread of high-demand turbine inventory: PW545C support components, Honeywell RE100 APU hardware, Collins Pro Line 21 avionics, landing gear parts, wheels, brakes, hydraulic components, environmental system parts, flight controls, cabin hardware, doors, panels, fairings, lighting, and all the small Citation-specific pieces that somehow become very important the moment one goes missing.
That is the bottom line. The airplane’s flying chapter is closing, but the parts pipeline is opening. BAS will recover, document, photograph, price, and list the useful components so Citation XLS+ operators and shops can get what they need without playing hide-and-seek with the supply chain.
As disassembly begins, BAS expects to recover components including:
- Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C engine accessories and support components
- Honeywell RE100 (XL) APU components and related support hardware
- Collins Pro Line 21 avionics, navigation, communication, display, and safety system components
- Main and nose landing gear components, wheels, brakes, actuators, steering, and related hardware
- Hydraulic system components, pumps, valves, lines, reservoirs, and system support parts
- Environmental control, pressurization, bleed air, oxygen, and cabin comfort components
- Flight control components, trim system parts, flap system parts, and control surface hardware
- Cabin seating, tables, cabinetry, interior trim, lighting, switches, panels, and cabin hardware
- Doors, windows, fairings, access panels, cowling, nacelle components, and Citation airframe hardware
- And Much More!!!

PW545C Power:
Serious Engines Deserve Serious Offers
The standout recovery from this Citation XLS+ is the matched pair of Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C engines. These are high-value, high-demand engines from a documented Citation XLS+, and they are exactly the kind of inventory that gets attention before the rest of the parts list even finishes loading.
BAS Part Sales currently has this matched PW545C pair available, with records identifying the left engine as PCE-DF0193 and the right engine as PCE-DF0194. Both engines show 2,866.6 engine hours and 3,995 cycles in the available CAMP data as of October 2025.
If you are interested in the pair, now is the time to get in front of it. Submit a strong, serious offer and be ready to move. BAS knows the value of these engines, and the market does too. The best opportunities usually go to the buyers who show up prepared, not the ones testing the floor with a fishing pole.

CESSNA 560XL CITATION XLS+
The Jet That Made Practical Look Polished
The Citation Excel family was Cessna doing what Cessna has always been good at: finding the useful middle of the market and building an airplane that operators actually wanted to fly, own, and maintain. The original Model 560XL Citation Excel first flew in 1996 and brought together a smart mix of Citation DNA: a cabin with real room, a useful wing, practical runway manners, and Pratt & Whitney power that made the airplane a serious midsize tool without turning it into a runway-hungry drama machine.
Then came the upgrades. The Citation XLS sharpened the formula with improved engines and a glass cockpit. The Citation XLS+ took another step forward in 2008 with PW545C engines, FADEC engine controls, a revised nose, and Collins Pro Line 21 avionics with four-screen LCD EFIS. In plain English, Cessna gave the already-useful Excel platform a better suit, better lungs, and a panel that looked ready for the next decade.
That is why the XLS+ still matters. It sits in the sweet spot for corporate operators, charter departments, fractional fleets, private owners, and shops that need practical support for a very active Citation fleet. Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+ parts are not theoretical shelf decoration. They are the kind of components people call about when an airplane is sitting, a schedule is waiting, and nobody in the room wants to hear the phrase “extended lead time.”
CESSNA 560XL CITATION XLS+
This One Came With a Paper Trail, Not a Mystery Novel
This aircraft is a 2011 Cessna 560XL Citation XLS+, serial 560XL-6095, with records showing 2,866.6 aircraft hours and 3,995 landings as of October 2025. That is a useful number set for the parts department. Not ancient. Not vague. Not “trust us, bro” aviation history written in disappearing ink.
The records also identify both Pratt & Whitney Canada PW545C engines, with the left engine listed as PCE-DF0193 and the right engine listed as PCE-DF0194. Both show 2,866.6 engine hours and 3,995 cycles in the available CAMP data. The Honeywell RE100 (XL) APU is also identified in the records, with 1,658.1 APU hours and 3,447 starts noted in the available data.
That matters because good turbine inventory starts before the first panel comes off. The records give this airplane more than a backstory. They give BAS a map. Better identification, cleaner cataloging, stronger traceability, and a more useful recovery path for operators and maintenance shops supporting Citation XLS+ aircraft.

The Plus Means Something Here
The Citation XLS+ was not just an Excel with a haircut and a new badge.
The Plus brought the kind of upgrades that matter in the real world: PW545C power, FADEC engine controls, Collins Pro Line 21 avionics, a modernized nose, and the cabin comfort that helped make the Excel family one of the most useful business jet lines in its class. It kept the core Citation idea intact: go where the trip needs to go, keep the airplane manageable, and do the job without needing a parade every time the wheels stop turning.
That makes this aircraft especially interesting in disassembly. XLS+ operators need support for avionics, engine accessories, electrical components, hydraulic systems, environmental controls, landing gear hardware, cabin equipment, lighting, oxygen system components, trim pieces, and the dozens of small, expensive, annoying-to-find items that can turn a simple maintenance event into a calendar problem.
And nobody likes a calendar problem. Especially when the airplane was supposed to leave yesterday.

The Records Stop Being History. The Parts Start Becoming Inventory.
This is where a BAS disassembly earns its keep.
A complete airplane reaches the end of one job, but that does not mean its components are done working. The value is in recovering the useful parts carefully, documenting them clearly, photographing the actual item, pricing it upfront, and getting it into the hands of the owners, operators, and shops keeping the remaining fleet moving.
That is the difference between an airplane disappearing into a back corner and an airplane being reassigned with purpose.
This Citation XLS+ brings the right kind of turbine parts profile: documented engines, identified APU, Collins avionics, Citation landing gear and brake components, hydraulic system parts, environmental system hardware, cabin and interior components, flight controls, lighting, electrical parts, doors, panels, fairings, and airframe hardware that can support operators who do not have time to wait around while the supply chain finds its reading glasses.
CESSNA 560XL CITATION XLS+
Not Finished. Just Reassigned.
Practical enough for operators. Capable enough for the mission. Sensible enough to become a fleet favorite without needing to shout about it.
This one is done flying as a complete aircraft, but its best components still have work ahead.
That is the point of bringing it through the BAS turbine shop. Recover the good parts. Keep the records tied to the components. Show buyers the actual item. Publish the price. Ship fast. Support the fleet.
The mission changed.
The parts did not retire.

When Your First 737 Won't Fit The Normal Plan
We’ve disassembled a lot of aircraft over the years. Singles, twins, turboprops, business jets, the usual parade of aluminum with a story to tell. But this one was different. This was our first Boeing 737, and from the minute we took it on, it was obvious this was not going to be a normal BAS job. Not because it was a jet. Not because it was complex...
