N453S

This article covers airframe N453S, a 1998-built Cessna 550 Citation II with serial number 550-0445. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by N18920 LLC, an LLC based in North Canton, OH, US, which appears as the on-record owner and operator/home base contact for the type certificate and registration. No public record of additional previous owners or significant registry actions is provided in the supplied data. The aircraft is valued at $969,000, reflecting its condition and market position among late-1990s light business jets.

The cabin of this specific airframe is an executive layout certified for 8 seats, configured for short- to mid-range business missions. Avionics fit and aftermarket interior modifications are not published in the supplied dataset, so no further detail on specific navigation or cabin systems is available. With a cruise speed of 403 knots and a maximum practical range of 1,998 nautical miles, typical mission profiles for N453S would include transregional point-to-point business travel and charter segments within continental ranges consistent with its owner/operator based in North Canton, OH, US. Routine maintenance considerations follow the airframe’s category as a fixed-wing multi-engine jet; age-related inspections and lifecycle component replacement are implicit given the 1998 build year.

The Cessna 550 Citation II family occupies the light-cabin business jet niche, offering conservative operating costs relative to larger jets while providing transregional performance: in this case a 43,000 ft ceiling and 403 kt cruise. Competing models in the same era and mission class include other light business jets with similar seating and range figures; buyer and charter demand for late-1990s airframes typically emphasizes maintenance history, avionics upgrades, and total time-in-service when determining resale value. For N453S, the reported valuation of $969,000 and its recorded ownership by N18920 LLC are principal factors that prospective buyers or operators would weigh alongside maintenance logs and inspection results.
