The Citation XLS has always been a popular aircraft for the business aviation community, and the last 6 months have been no exception. Historically, most professionals would consider anything less than 5% of a particular aircraft fleet for sale to indicate a hot market. As of today, the Citation XLS only has 3.4% of the entire fleet for sale! This stat alone indicates that the sellers are in the driver’s seat of this market. However, buyers should not hesitate to lean forward in their next XLS purchase. The past XLS market trends have proven that the XLS market consistently maintains an average of 5% of the fleet for sale.
As the third quarter of 2020 approaches, look for the XLS inventories to rise slightly, giving more options to buyers. Omni Aircraft Sales is closely monitoring the Citation XLS market and can assist both buyers and sellers in this hot market.
