Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N238EJ is a 1997-built Cessna 550 Citation Bravo, serial number 550-0812, manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the United States and is registered to Elizabeth J Fisher of Odessa, TX, US, representing an individual ownership model rather than corporate or commercial registry. Notable registry actions: Not published. Valuation and condition highlights: Not published.
The specific airframe is configured in a typical executive layout accommodating 6–8 passengers with forward cabin seating, a mid-cabin club arrangement and an aft baggage area, consistent with standard Citation Bravo interiors. Given its U.S. registration and owner location in Odessa, Texas, typical mission profiles for this example would include short- to medium-range business trips and regional hops within the continental United States, taking advantage of the Bravo’s transcontinental capability up to 1,900 nm and high single-flight cruise speeds near 394 kts. Avionics fit for this individual airframe are not published; maintenance considerations align with twin-PW530A engine support and the airframe’s 1997 build year, with operator maintenance and parts support facilitated through Textron Aviation service networks. Unique amenities specific to this serial are not published.
The Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies the light-cabin, high-performance niche for turbofan business jets, offering subsonic cruise near 394 kts and a service ceiling of 43,000 ft. It competes with other light business jets from the late 1990s and early 2000s in owner-flown and small charter markets, where cabin flexibility (6–8 places) and Pratt & Whitney Canada PW530A engine commonality drive buyer and charter demand. Maintenance and resale considerations for this 1997 airframe focus on engine program status, avionics upgrades, and the overall logbook pedigree tied to serial 550-0812.
