Model & Market Context
This airframe, registration N181EB, is a Cessna 550 Citation II built in 1982 with serial number 550-0369. It is recorded as owned by SPORTSMED AVIATION LLC of Gulf Breeze, FL, US and is registered in the US. The airframe appears in seller/listing materials with contemporary avionics and cabin equipment notes, and its documentation emphasizes a well-equipped executive interior as described in listing equipment descriptions.
The cabin for this specific airframe is reported as a 7-place executive layout with an aft belted lavatory and a flushing lavatory, according to seller and listing equipment descriptions; this coexists with the aircraft’s certificated seating capacity of 8. Avionics fit for the airframe, as listed in sale materials, includes a Garmin G700-series PFD/flight deck with GTN‑750 nav/comm units and GTX ADS‑B transponders, supporting modern GPS navigation, WAAS approaches, and ADS‑B out/in surveillance. Typical mission profiles for a Citation II of this configuration center on short- to medium-range executive transport and medevac or corporate shuttle roles, capitalizing on the aircraft’s near-2,000 nm range and 403‑knot cruise for multi-state U.S. operations from its Gulf Breeze, Florida base. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow JT15D-4 engine and airframe schedules, and operator-specific outfitting (noted in listings) may affect dispatch flexibility and refurbishment cycles.
The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies the light-to-light midsize business jet niche, offering a balance of speed, runway performance, and operating economy relative to contemporary light jets. Competing models historically include early Learjet and Falcon 10 family aircraft in missions emphasizing point-to-point regional transport. For buyers and charter operators, key considerations with this airframe include aging-aircraft maintenance of 1982-build systems, potential avionics upgrades already indicated on listings, and resale positioning influenced by completed avionics and interior work.
