Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N338B is a 2006-built Cessna 550 Citation Bravo, serial 550-1132, manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation). Ownership is recorded to WORLDWIDE OPTION LLC, an LLC based in Lewes, DE, US, and the aircraft is registered in the US. The entry in the U.S. civil register and the LLC ownership indicate a corporate/operator base in Delaware; no additional notable registry actions or changes of ownership are published in the provided data. Condition and valuation details are not published in the supplied dataset.
This specific airframe is outfitted with a typical 7‑place executive cabin layout (noted as a 7‑passenger executive seating arrangement within an 8-seat certification), arranged for corporate or charter executive transport within the aircraft’s medium–range mission profile. Avionics fit for this airframe is indicated as the Honeywell Primus 1000 (typical fit), with many Citation Bravos delivered with either the Primus 1000 or the UNS‑1K FMS options, reflecting common panel configurations for regional executive operation. Typical missions for the airframe would include short‑to‑medium cross‑country sectors up to the published range of 1,900 nm and cruise speeds near 400 kts, operating from a U.S. corporate or charter base consistent with the owner’s Lewes, Delaware location. Engine type and age considerations for the PW530A pair should be monitored for scheduled overhaul and accessory maintenance in line with Pratt & Whitney Canada recommendations.
The Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies the light-cabin, short‑to‑medium‑range business jet niche, offering transcontinental regional capability with a service ceiling of 45,000 ft and cruise near 400 kts. It competes with other light jets of its era and price point and remains popular among owners seeking efficient, proven airframes for executive transport and charter. Typical market considerations for this airframe class include avionics configuration (Primus 1000 vs. UNS‑1K), engine hours/overhaul status for the PW530A engines, and the impact of corporate ownership structures such as an LLC on resale and title transfer processes.
