Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N41GA, is a Cessna 550 Citation II built in 1979 with manufacturer-assigned serial 550-0042 by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe carries a United States registration and is presented in a typical executive configuration suited to two crew and passenger operations. As a specific example of the Citation II line, this airframe pairs the model designation and serial data to identify its production sequence within the 550 series. The entry emphasizes the airframe’s production year, registration jurisdiction, and serial identity as primary identifiers for tracking and technical records.
The cabin of this airframe is configured for two pilots plus up to eight passengers in a typical executive layout, reflecting the model’s intended use for short- to medium-range executive transport. With a maximum cruise speed of 369 kts and a published range of 1,900 nm, operational profiles for this airframe center on point-to-point executive missions well within its endurance. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4 engines, each rated at 2,500 lbf, provide the installed thrust characteristics for climb and cruise performance up to a certified ceiling of 43,000 ft. Cabin and operational details for this specific serial are characterized by the standard Citation II executive arrangement of two flight crewmembers supplemented by the stated passenger capacity.
This individual Cessna 550 Citation II airframe embodies the baseline performance figures associated with the 550 series: transcontinental-capable range in the 1,900 nm class, cruise performance near 369 kts, and high-altitude capability to 43,000 ft. The twin JT15D-series engines at 2,500 lbf each define the propulsion package for this serial, while the eight-seat executive cabin establishes its role in small-group business transport. Serial 550-0042 represents an early-production 550-series airframe within the Cessna (Textron Aviation) build sequence.
