N362TW

The airframe bearing tail number N362TW is a Cessna-built executive jet delivered in 1983, carrying manufacturer serial 650-0011. It is a factory Cessna product marketed as a Cessna 650 Citation III and is currently registered in the US to CITATION N362TW LLC with a registered owner location of Amarillo, TX, US. The airframe appears in sales and registry materials with an indicated market valuation of $879,000, reflecting its vintage 1983 build and the equipment complement listed in the sales notes. Notable registry and ownership actions include its registration to CITATION N362TW LLC in Amarillo, indicating a single-entity LLC ownership arrangement often used for corporate or charter operations.

The cabin is described with an executive layout configured for nine passengers in the sales listing: a forward two-place divan, mid-cabin club seating, aft forward-facing seats, and a belted aft lavatory, providing mixed lounge and forward-facing seating suitable for corporate transport. Avionics and mission equipment documented on the airframe include Sperry/Honeywell SPZ autopilot; a dual Collins communications and navigation suite with dual Collins DME; Universal UNS-1K FMS; dual Collins TDR-94 transponders; Bendix/King ART-2000 weather radar; Bendix/King TCAS-II; and King KGP-560 TAWS, enabling typical business-jet IFR and EW operations. With a long-range capability of 2,038 nm and a cruise around 427 kts, the jet is suited to medium- to long-range executive missions and owner/operator travel out of its Amarillo base, with maintenance considerations tied to its age and the TFE731-3C engine commonality.

The Cessna 650 Citation III airframe occupies a long-range, high‑performance executive jet niche among late-model 1970s–1980s business jets, offering transregional capability and high-altitude ceilings to 51,000 ft. Competitively, aircraft in this class attract buyers seeking a balance of speed and cabin utility rather than ultra-new technology; resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe are influenced by its 1983 build, established avionics fit, and the documented engine type Honeywell TFE731-3C-100S, all of which factor into the quoted $879,000 value and ongoing market demand for mission-ready, well-equipped Citation IIIs.
