N44MQ

This airframe, registered as N44MQ, is a 1994-built example of the Cessna 650 Citation VII, serial number 6507043, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by C-7 LLC, an LLC based in San Antonio, TX, US, which has operated and maintained the platform from that locale. The airframe carries a contemporary mid-market valuation of $2,000,000, reflecting its age, installed systems, and the typical residuals for late-model Citation VIIs. Administrative status is US registration with ownership retained in an LLC structure, and there are no other documented ownership transfers or notable registry actions in the supplied data.

The interior is configured in a typical executive layout for the model, a standard 8–9 place executive club/club + divan arrangement with a belted aft lavatory that includes a vanity and sink, providing executive transport capability for short- to mid-range missions. Avionics are representative of common retrofit fits for the Citation VII era, listed as a Honeywell SPZ-8000 IFCS combined with Collins communications and navigation components, enabling contemporary IFR operations and improved flight guidance over original installations. With a cruise speed of 417 kts and a range of 1,715 nm, the aircraft is suited to domestic cross-country missions and point-to-point executive charters from its San Antonio base, while maintenance considerations focus on the TFE731 series engines and avionics support for SPZ-8000 retrofits.

The Cessna 650 Citation VII occupies a mid-to-upper light-medium business jet niche within the Citation family, offering high cruise speeds and a 51,000 ft ceiling that compete with contemporary small-cabin jets of its era. Typical competitors in mission profile and market segment include late-model light-medium jets that trade off cabin volume for speed and range; buyer demand for well-equipped, lower-time airframes often centers on updated avionics and engine maintenance history. Resale and operational value for this airframe will be influenced primarily by engine TBO status, avionics upgrade receipts, and the documented maintenance trail under ownership by C-7 LLC.
