Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N144ZV, a 2000-built Cessna 550 Citation Bravo with manufacturer serial 550-0926. The airframe is listed as registered in the United States and is owned by the corporation N129RP LLC. There are no additional operator or home-base details provided in the data; registration and ownership are recorded under the corporate owner noted. The airframe's market valuation is reported at $2,200,000, reflecting a mature but serviceable example of its model year and configuration.
The cabin configuration for this airframe follows a typical executive layout described as a 6–8-place arrangement, with a 7-place fit being common; the fit for N144ZV is consistent with that executive profile, including a forward refreshment area and the option for an enclosed lavatory in many operator fits. Avionics are reported in the family-standard fit as Honeywell Primus 1000 with common FMS options, providing conventional glass-fitted navigation and flight management capabilities for dispatch on business and charter missions. Typical mission profiles supported by the airframe’s performance envelope include short- to medium-range executive transport, air-taxi and owner-operated cross-country flights within its 1,744 nm range and at cruise speeds near 400 kts. Maintenance and operational considerations for this specific airframe reflect its twin PW530A engines and corporate registration status, with routine component and avionics service consistent with owners of pre-2005 Citation Bravos.
The Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies a light-cabin, light-medium business jet niche emphasizing efficiency and relatively low operating costs compared with larger cabin types. Competitors in mission and market positioning include other light-cabin jets offering similar speed and range; buyer and charter demand typically targets operators seeking fast regional hops and cost-effective ownership. Resale and maintenance considerations for N144ZV center on engine life, avionics fit such as the Honeywell Primus 1000, and overall installed equipment; its reported value of $2,200,000 places it within expected secondary-market pricing for a 2000-model airframe in the Citation Bravo family.
