N335RJ

The airframe bearing tail number N335RJ is a 2003-built Cessna 550 Citation Bravo, serial 550-1063, manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation Inc.). It is registered in the United States and owned by WINGS II LLC, an LLC based in Birmingham, AL, US, which serves as its operator/home base for registry purposes. The airframe’s factory build and serial place it squarely within the later-production Citation Bravo run; its condition and market positioning are reflected in an estimated value of $2,000,000. No specific notable registry actions beyond its current ownership are published in the provided data.

The cabin is outfitted in an executive club seating arrangement for 6–8 passengers with a forward refreshment/galley area and an enclosed aft lavatory, supporting typical short- to mid-range corporate or owner/operator missions. Avionics were commonly delivered with the Honeywell Primus 1000 on this model; the airframe’s documentation notes that this is the common factory fit, and many Bravos have later FMS/avionics retrofits—no retrofit specifics for N335RJ are published. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include regional business travel within its 1,700 nm range at cruise speeds near 400 kts, operating from its Birmingham, Alabama base. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft follow standard Bravo practice for twin PW530A installations and executive interior maintenance cycles.

The Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies a light business jet niche with transcontinental short-hop capability, modest operating costs relative to larger jets, and a 45,000 ft service ceiling enabling favorable traffic avoidance and fuel-efficient cruise. Competing models in its era include other light-cabin jets with similar range and passenger capacity; buyer demand is often driven by price, avionics state, and interior condition. Resale value for a 2003 Bravo such as N335RJ is influenced by engine hours, avionics retrofits, and completed maintenance programs, consistent with the estimated market valuation of $2,000,000.
