Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N157TF is a 1991-built Cessna 560 Citation V with serial number 560-0157. The airframe is owned by Meyers Aircraft Trading West LLC, a corporate owner based in Windermere, FL, US, and is registered in the US. Registry details identify this example as an active Citation V airframe from the early 1990s, with a current estimated market valuation of $1,900,000. Notable registry actions include continued civilian registration under the listed corporate owner and no publicly reported changes of role since acquisition.
The subject airframe, N157TF, is configured to carry up to 11 occupants, reflecting a typical nine- to eleven-seat light-corporate layout in the Citation V class. Cabin layout and avionics fit for this specific serial are consistent with Citation V standards of the era, supporting short- to mid-range corporate missions and charter operations across domestic U.S. trunk and regional city pairs. Based from Windermere, FL, US under corporate ownership, the aircraft is suited to point-to-point business travel within its 1,960 nm ferry range and near-high-speed cruise of 397 kts. Maintenance considerations for this airframe center on age-related systems and JT15D-5 engine common items, given the 1991 build year.
The Cessna 560 Citation V occupies the light-cabin, longer-range end of the Citation family, offering higher cruise speed and range compared with earlier Citation models. In the market, it competes with light-to-medium jets from the same era that prioritize runway performance and operating economy, attracting buyers seeking lower acquisition cost and reasonable long-range capability. Resale and maintenance outlook for a 1991 airframe like 560-0157 typically factors in engine hours, avionics retrofits, and corrosion/airframe lifecycle work when valuing at roughly $1,900,000.
