Model & Market Context

This airframe, N257RM, is a 1998-built Cessna 560 Citation Ultra with serial number 560-0485. The aircraft is registered in the United States and, according to the available data, is owned by RMC AVIATION LLC, a corporate operator based in Klamath Falls, OR, US. The airframe is cataloged as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet and carries an estimated market value of $2,200,000. Registry and valuation entries indicate it operates from the owner's Oregon base, with no additional notable transfers or historical events published.

The cabin for this specific airframe is described as a typical seven-place executive club layout with a forward service area and an enclosed aft lavatory, though final interior fitment may be operator dependent. Specific avionics fit and equipment lists for N257RM are not published in the supplied data; consequently, operational avionics capabilities should be confirmed with the operator or registry records. Mission profiles for this airframe are consistent with light-cabin business jet use — short-to-medium international and domestic executive transport within the aircraft’s 1,960 nm range and high-speed cruise capability. Based at Klamath Falls, the aircraft would typically support regional chartering, owner-flown transport, or corporate missions, with maintenance considerations aligning with late-1990s airframe/service schedules for Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-powered Citations.

The Cessna 560 Citation Ultra occupies the light-cabin business jet niche, offering relatively high cruise speeds and a 45,000 ft service ceiling for efficient regional missions. Competing types in this segment historically include other light jets with similar range and capacity; market demand tends to focus on buyers seeking compact cabin comfort with favorable operating economics. For this 1998 airframe, age and serial-specific maintenance history will influence resale value and buyer interest; the listed $2,200,000 valuation reflects airframe age, configuration, and the twin JT15D-5D engine type’s service considerations.
