Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N28AR, is a 1972-built Cessna 500 Citation I with serial number 500-0044. The airframe is owned by N28AR LLC, an LLC based in Kalispell, MT, US and is registered in the US civil registry. Registry records report a typical executive seating configuration of 7–8 passengers, a notable entry recorded in the ownership and airworthiness documentation for this airframe. The aircraft’s condition and valuation highlights are reflected in its continued operation from a private LLC based in Kalispell and documented registry seating and configuration data.

The cabin for this specific airframe is recorded as a typical executive layout with 7–8 passenger seating, consistent with registry entries for the airframe; seating and cabin fits are oriented toward business and short- to medium-range executive transport. Based in Kalispell, MT, US, the operator profile under N28AR LLC suggests missions concentrating on private corporate travel and regional hops supported by the aircraft’s 1,328 nm range and cruise of 352 kts. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-1 turbofan installation frames maintenance considerations typical of early JT15D-series engines, and the aircraft’s maximum certified ceiling of 41,000 ft supports flight profiles that keep it clear of most weather and traffic at cruise. Avionics fit and specific amenities are not published in the supplied data; cabin configuration noted in registry records is the principal interior datum.

This airframe is a member of the original Citation light business jet family, represented here by the Cessna 500 Citation I airframe serial 500-0044. Its performance—352 kts cruise, 1,328 nm range, and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft—positions it in the light-cabin executive transport niche, useful for owner-operators and LLC-based private operation. Market considerations for this specific airframe include upkeep of legacy JT15D-1 engines and airframe systems associated with a 1972 build, registry-documented cabin layouts, and operator-based maintenance regimes that influence operational availability and resale profiles.
