N400EC

This airframe, registered as N400EC, is a 1992-built Cessna 550 Citation II with serial number 550-0713. The jet is held by DELTA MIKE HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC based in Pensacola, FL, US, which appears as the on-record owner and operator/home-base agent for the type certificate registry. No other publicized ownership transfers or notable registry actions are listed in the supplied data. The airframe is presented in an executive configuration and is valued at $850,000, indicating a late-model Citation II preserved for continued light business transport use rather than full refurbishment to newer-model standards.

The aircraft is fitted in an executive 8-place configuration, typically arranged in a center-club layout for the Citation II, providing a conventional light-jet executive cabin footprint suitable for short to medium–range missions. Avionics on late-model Citation II airframes commonly include the Honeywell SPZ-series EFIS/IFCS suite, though individual installations may vary by airframe; this fit reflects an upgrade path used to maintain IFR capability and situational awareness in the platform. With a cruise speed of 386 kts and a maximum operating ceiling of 43,000 ft, N400EC is optimized for regional business travel and owner/operator charters, routinely flown on city-pair missions within its 1,998 nm range. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would align with Citation II norms: attention to JT15D-4 engine lifecycle events, airframe corrosion checks consistent with a 1992 build year, and avionics common-mode upgrades where installed.

The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies the light-business-jet niche as a straightforward, efficient twin-engine platform introduced to replace earlier Citation variants, offering improved speed, range and payload over its predecessors. Competing models in its era and secondhand market include other light jets with similar mission profiles; buyer and charter demand tends to favor well-documented maintenance history and avionics upgrades such as the Honeywell SPZ-series. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its age and the installed JT15D-4 engines: lifecycle and overhaul status of engines, the condition of the executive interior, and completeness of avionics documentation will materially affect marketability within the approximate $850,000 valuation.
