Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N21UA is a Cessna-built Cessna 550 Citation II constructed in 1982 with serial number 550-0356. The airframe is recorded as owned by Abercorn Services LLC, an LLC based in Wilmington, DE, US, which places the operator/home-base linkage in the Wilmington, Delaware area. The airframe is U.S.-registered and carries an assessed market value of $691,569 in the provided data. Maintenance, registration actions, and any notable ownership or registry changes beyond the single-owner record are not published in the supplied dataset.

The specific interior of this airframe is documented as an 8-place executive layout typical for Citation II corporate fits, indicating a focus on small business or executive transport missions. Avionics specifics are not published in the provided data; however, the airframe’s cruise speed of 399 kts and range of 1,900 nm support medium-range point-to-point missions such as regional corporate flights or on-demand charter segments within the continental United States. Operated from its owner’s locality in Wilmington, DE, the aircraft’s high fixed ceiling of 43,000 ft offers operational flexibility for favorable fuel burn and weather avoidance. Maintenance considerations would align with the twin JT15D-4 turbofan configuration and airframe age, with lifecycle and component tracking important given the 1982 build year.

The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies a light-cabin, light-twin turbofan niche, delivering combination of transregional range and executive seating for up to 8 passengers as exemplified by this airframe. Competing models in its vintage and mission class typically include other light business jets with similar ranges and passenger capacities; buyer and charter demand often depends on airframe condition, avionics currency, and maintenance history, factors critical for a 1982-built aircraft. Resale and operational economic considerations for this serial (550-0356) will be influenced by the installed JT15D-4 engines and the documented market value of $691,569, with potential buyers weighing refurbishment or avionics upgrade costs against mission capability.
