Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing registration N259DH is a 1999-built Cessna 500 Citation (Citation I) with serial number 5000259. Owned by AIRNUT LLC and based in Anchorage, AK, US, the airframe appears on the US registry under that single-owner record. The two-engined light business jet configuration, its year of manufacture (1999) and serial series are primary identifiers for its maintenance and historical records. The airframe is currently valued at $424,000, a figure that reflects the specific condition and market position of this individual airframe.

The cabin of this specific airframe is configured to accommodate 8 seats, consistent with its Citation I layout and mission profile. Registered and operated from Anchorage, AK, the aircraft’s operational envelope—cruise speed 348 kts and ceiling 41,000 ft—supports regional and trans-regional missions within its 1,328 nm range. Avionics fit, interior refurbishment history and specific amenity fit are not published for this airframe in the provided data, and maintenance histories beyond the basic registry and manufacturer/serial details are likewise not included. Operator location and ownership are the primary operational identifiers available for N259DH.

This airframe is an example of the Cessna 500 Citation (Citation I) family, powered by 2× Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-1A engines delivering 2,200 lbf each, yielding the documented cruise, range and ceiling figures. As an individual 1999-built airframe with serial 5000259 and a reported value of $424,000, the aircraft’s market positioning, maintenance cycles and resale considerations are centered on its age, cumulative hours and condition relative to those published performance parameters. The combination of specified range (1,328 nm), cruise (348 kts) and cabin seating (8) frames the likely operational niche and informs owner/operator planning for continued service or disposition.
