The airframe is configured to accommodate 8 seats, consistent with light corporate transport missions typical of the Citation I family. With a cruise speed of 323 kts and a range of 1,328 nm, this airframe is well suited for short to mid‑range executive hops and intercity charters operating from the owner’s base in Tampa, FL, US. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-1 engines, each producing 2,200 lbf, support operations to higher flight levels up to a service ceiling of 38,400 ft, enabling efficient climb profiles and favorable performance in typical business aviation flight profiles.

The Cessna 501 Citation I / Citation I/SP occupies the light corporate jet niche as a six- to eight-seat, twin‑engine platform optimized for short to medium sectors. With the performance figures shown—cruise 323 kts, ceiling 38,400 ft, and range 1,328 nm—the model competes historically with other late‑1970s light jets in owner‑operator and charter roles. Market considerations for this airframe typically include age‑related avionics upgrades, engine program status for its JT15D-1 powerplants, and resale interest tied to corporate ownership structures such as that of SUN DOME INC.
