N15JT

This article covers the airframe bearing registration N15JT, a Cessna 560 Citation V built in 1989 with serial number 560-0015. The airframe is owned by SIGNALWAVE LLC (an LLC based in Ocala, FL, US), which appears as the current registered operator/home base in public registry entries. The aircraft is identified in U.S. registry records with a maximum certified seating of eleven and a typical executive configuration; no separate commercial or multiple-operator history is provided in the supplied data. Notable registry details include its intact factory serial and build year linking it directly to late-1980s Citation V production.

The cabin of this airframe follows a typical executive layout described as a 7–8 passenger arrangement (four-place club plus single chairs) with a belted lavatory, while the registry notes a maximum certified seating of 11. Operationally this configuration supports short-to-medium-haul business missions and executive transport from the owner's base in Ocala, FL, with cruise performance and range suitable for nonstop routes across much of the continental United States and common coastal city pairs. Avionics fit and specific onboard systems for this airframe are not published in the provided data; routine maintenance considerations would reflect the twin JT15D-5A engines and the airframe's late-1980s manufacture date, including OEM component life limits and age-related corrosion/avionics upgrades typical of Citation Vs.

The Cessna 560 Citation V occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche for which it was designed, offering a balance of speed (around 430 kts cruise) and a transcontinental-appropriate range (about 1,960 nm) for owner-operators and charter use. Competing models from the same era include contemporaneous light-to-midsize jets that trade cabin size, range, and operating costs, and buyers often consider JT15D engine maintenance cycles and avionics retrofit needs when valuing late-1980s airframes. Resale and operational considerations for this specific airframe hinge on condition, logbook continuity, and any modernization completed since its 1989 build.
