N116MB

The airframe bearing registration N116MB is a 1997-built Cessna 650 Citation VII, serial number 650-7081, currently owned by TVPX ARS INC TRUSTEE of North Salt Lake, UT, US. The airframe is registered in the United States and is presented in listings with an estimated market valuation of $2,000,000, reflecting age, configuration, and typical seven-figure mid-life pricing for the type. Maintenance and registry entries specific to this airframe are not published here beyond the current corporate trustee ownership and U.S. registration. The aircraft’s condition and valuation position it within the active secondary market where operational examples continue to support corporate and charter missions.

This specific airframe is marketed with a nine-passenger executive cabin layout featuring 6 bucket/club seats, 2-place divan, belted lavatory as the airframe-specific layout described in listing material, although the certified seating capacity is 12. Avionics commonly fitted to VII-series aircraft and noted for this airframe include a Honeywell Primus 870 / SPZ-8000 IFCS complemented by Collins communications and navigation components, with exact fit varying by installation and equipment history. Typical mission profiles for the platform and this example include medium-range executive transport and charter routes across continental U.S. ranges up to 2,000 nm, exploiting a high cruise speed of 459 kts and an operational ceiling of 51,000 ft. Corporate trustee ownership suggests operation through charter management or fractional/asset-holding structures, with associated maintenance and records management under corporate oversight.

The Cessna 650 Citation VII occupies the high-speed light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability for operators seeking higher cruise speed and altitude performance than earlier Citation variants. Competing models in the era and aftermarket include other late-1990s midsize jets with similar range and passenger capacity; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect engine TFE731-series support, avionics refurbishment cycles (notably Honeywell Primus 870 upgrades), and cabin reconfiguration potential for charter demand. The listed valuation of $2,000,000 is indicative of market positioning where airframe age, equipment fit, and maintenance status drive buyer interest.
