Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N123PL, a 1982-built Cessna 501 Citation I/SP with serial number 501-0234. The aircraft is manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation Inc.) and is registered in the US for fixed-wing multi-engine operation. Ownership is recorded to 4-S AVIATION LLC of Clovis, NM, US, and the airframe carries an FAA-registered executive cabin certification. The airframe is valued at $600,000, reflecting its vintage 1982 build and configuration.
The aircraft is FAA-registered with 8 seats arranged in an executive layout typical for the Citation I/SP model, consistent with the provided cabin certification. Operator and home base data show current ownership by 4-S AVIATION LLC, Clovis, NM, US, which indicates the aircraft is maintained and operated under U.S. registry. Specific avionics fit and detailed maintenance history are not published in the supplied data. Typical mission profiles can be inferred from the aircraft’s specifications—single-pair turbofan propulsion, a transcontinental-ish range of 1,328 nm, and a cruise of 345 kts—but operational schedules, charter status, and interior amenities beyond the executive layout are not detailed in the provided record.
The airframe is a member of the Cessna 500-series light business jets, here represented by the Cessna 501 Citation I/SP. With twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-1A engines producing 2,200 lbf thrust apiece, the model occupies a light jet performance niche offering moderate range and a 41,000 ft service ceiling. The listed valuation of $600,000 reflects market considerations for a 1982 airframe with an eight-place executive cabin; specific resale and maintenance implications depend on logbook completeness, avionics standards, and overhaul status, which are not specified in the supplied data.
