Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N102HB, a Cessna 550 Citation II built in 1982 with serial number 550-0409. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by BUZZ-AIR OF INDIANA INC, a corporation based in Michigan City, IN, US, which appears as the current operator/home base on registry records. The airframe’s valuation is listed at $1,000,000, reflecting market appraisal for a 1982 Citation II in its documented configuration and ownership status. Notable registry actions include its continued US registration under the corporate owner, with no other ownership events published in the supplied data.
The cabin of N102HB is fitted in an 8-place executive layout consistent with typical Citation II interiors, arranged for corporate transport and executive travel. Operated from Michigan City, IN, US by BUZZ-AIR OF INDIANA INC, the aircraft’s performance figures—1,200 nm range and 375 kts cruise—support short- to medium-haul business missions and point-to-point regional charters. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4 turbofan engines (each rated at 2,500 lbf) define its maintenance profile and support considerations for twin-engine inspections and overhaul scheduling specific to this airframe. Cabin amenities and specific avionics fit for this individual ship are not published in the supplied data.
The airframe belongs to the Cessna 550 Citation II family, a fixed-wing multi-engine light business jet that fills a performance niche characterized by moderate range, transregional cruise speed, and eight-place executive accommodation. With a certified ceiling of 43,000 ft and the cited cruise and range, this model serves buyers seeking efficient regional point-to-point capability rather than intercontinental range. The combination of year-of-build (1982), seating (8), twin JT15D engines, and a listed value of $1,000,000 is relevant to prospective buyers or charter operators assessing maintenance, parts availability, and resale considerations for an airframe of this vintage.
