The aircraft is recorded as owned by Vertex LLC (a corporate owner) and carries United States registration.

The cabin of N44LV is configured as a seven-passenger center-club with a belted lavatory seat, a forward refreshment center, and an enclosed aft lavatory, providing a typical light-cabin executive layout for business or charter missions. The installed avionics baseline includes a Honeywell Primus 1000 IFR suite and a Universal UNS-1ESPW FMS with WAAS/LPV capability; some listings report retrofit installations of Garmin GTN-750/650 equipment, indicating variations in panel modernization among advertised examples of this airframe. With twin JT15D-5D engines producing 3,045 lbf each and a cruise of 430 kts, the aircraft is capable of point-to-point regional missions within its 1,960 nm ferry range, operating up to a certified ceiling of 45,000 ft. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft would reflect its mid-1990s manufacture date, corporate ownership model, and the avionics upgrade history cited in listings.
As a member of the Cessna 560 Citation Ultra lineage, this airframe represents the light-cabin business jet niche characterized by moderate range, transcontinental-capable cruise speeds and compact executive interiors. The 1996 build year and the reported valuation of $2,200,000 position N44LV in a used-aircraft market segment where buyer interest and charter demand often hinge on avionics modernity, refurbishment condition and maintenance history. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are likely influenced by its corporate ownership, avionics fit (factory and retrofit items), and the serviceability of its Pratt & Whitney JT15D-5D powerplants.
