N353HA

This airframe, registered as N353HA, is a 1986-built Cessna 650 Citation III with manufacturer's serial number 650-0109. The airframe is listed as owned by MPR AVIATION LLC, a limited liability company based in Wilmington, DE, US, and carries a United States registration. Notable registry information includes its certification as a fixed-wing multi-engine transport and a valuation reported at $759,998, reflecting its late-1980s manufacture and continuing service condition. The aircraft is certificated for up to 12 seats and has been presented in charter listings with multiple executive cabin layouts.

The cabin of this specific Citation III is described in charter listings with typical executive configurations: 7–9 passenger club seating with separate 3‑place forward/aft layouts reported, while the aircraft remains certificated for up to 12 seats. These arrangements indicate a focus on corporate and on-demand charter missions over middle–long domestic sectors, leveraging the type’s transcontinental range capability of 2,000 nm and a high cruise speed of 459 kts. Operated from the owner's base in Wilmington, DE, US, the twin GARRETT TFE731-3CR powerplants provide the thrust necessary for high-altitude cruise to a service ceiling of 51,000 ft, which supports efficient routing and favorable fuel planning. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its age and systems common to the model series, and the reported valuation of $759,998 frames its market positioning relative to refurbishment and avionics upgrade needs.

The Cessna 650 Citation III occupies a performance niche as a long-range, high-speed business jet within the late-model Citation family, offering transcontinental capability and a high service ceiling. In the used market, demand is driven by buyers seeking speed and range in a mid-to-large cabin, balanced against costs for age-related maintenance and possible avionics modernization. Competing models historically include other late-1980s to 1990s long-range light-to-medium business jets; resale and charter desirability for this particular airframe will hinge on its maintenance status, interior configuration, and the owner's operational record. With two GARRETT TFE731-3CR engines and certificated seating to 12, the airframe remains relevant for corporate and charter operators prioritizing speed, altitude capability, and flexible cabin layouts.
