N199JK

This airframe, registered as N199JK, is a 1974-built Cessna 500 Citation I with serial number 500-0199. The airframe was manufactured by Cessna (Cessna Aircraft Company) and carries a United States registration; detailed ownership timeline and specific operator base records are not published in the supplied data. No notable registry actions or major incident history are provided in the supplied data. Condition and valuation highlights are not published for this specific airframe in the provided dataset.

The cabin of this specific Citation I is outfitted in a six-passenger executive configuration: four club seats plus a two-place side-facing divan, with an aft lavatory, reflecting the common executive interior for short- to mid-range corporate missions. Avionics as-equipped lists indicate a mixed fit including an EFIS and a Bendix/King KFC-325 autopilot suite together with Garmin navigation and transponder equipment—specifically Garmin GNS-430/530 units and a Garmin GTX transponder—indicating upgrades from original-era instrumentation to modern panel elements. Typical missions for this configuration would include owner-flown or light charter point-to-point business trips within the jet’s 1,328 nm radius, operating from regional airports to major business hubs and exploiting the aircraft’s 41,000 ft service ceiling and 352‑knot cruise for quick climb and efficient cruise. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would focus on aging-jet inspections, avionics integration checks for mixed Bendix/King and Garmin systems, and continued attention to Pratt & Whitney JT15D engine time and overhaul status.

The Cessna 500 Citation I occupies the light business-jet niche introduced in the early 1970s, offering modest operating costs, straightforward systems, and useful intercity range for corporate operators and owner-pilots. Contemporaries and competitors historically include other light jets of the era; buyers typically value proven reliability and lower acquisition cost versus newer, faster designs. Market and resale considerations for this airframe specifically hinge on engine and avionics upgrades (notably the EFIS and Garmin items listed), overall maintenance history, and the airframe’s compliance with legacy-system service bulletins and inspections.
