Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N48BV, is a 1985-built Cessna S550 Citation S/II bearing serial number S550-0032. The jet is owned by TRN AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Lewes, DE, US, and is registered in the US. Registration and ownership are recorded to TRN AVIATION LLC in Lewes, Delaware, and the airframe's market valuation is listed at $856,000, reflecting its age and configuration.

The cabin for this airframe follows the typical S/II executive arrangement with a 6–8 place layout; reports for similar S/II examples note a belted lavatory aft, which is consistent with this configuration. Operated from its owner’s base in Lewes, DE, the airplane’s mission profile is suited to regional and transcontinental business travel within its 1,998 nm range and high-speed cruise of 403 kt—enabling city-pair routing with limited fuel stops. Avionics fit and specific interior finish for N48BV are not published in the provided data. Maintenance considerations center on airframe age (built 1985) and continued serviceability of the Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4B engines, and any operator should verify logbooks and component life limits as part of routine oversight.

The Cessna S550 Citation S/II occupies the light-to-low-medium business jet niche, offering relatively high cruise speed and a 43,000 ft ceiling for efficient point-to-point operations. Competing types in the same era and market segment typically include other early-generation light jets that prioritize short-field performance and operating economy over long-range ultra-large-cabin comfort. For a 1985 airframe like S550-0032, buyer and charter demand is influenced by maintenance history, avionics upgrades, and engine status; resale and operating costs reflect vintage systems and the remaining calendar and cycle life of major components.
