Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N500FR, is a 1992-built Cessna 650 Citation VI with serial number 650-0208. The airframe is registered to LEA KING LLC, an LLC based in Hobbs, NM, US, which is the recorded owner and operator/home base for this aircraft. The twin‑engine business jet has been maintained and operated in the US registry; available registry actions for this specific tail are limited to its ownership and registration details. Condition and valuation highlights are not published in the supplied data.

This airframe is configured and registered as a 12-seat cabin, while the model is typically outfitted in an executive 8–12 place layout; the specific cabin of N500FR reflects the upper end of the model’s certified seating capacity. Typical mission profiles enabled by the 2,350 nm range and 427 kt cruise speed include medium‑to‑long domestic hops and transcontinental US sectors flown from its Hobbs, NM base. The twin Garrett TFE731-3B engines provide cruise performance that supports a high single‑aisle cabin altitude and a maximum certified ceiling of 51,000 ft, factors that influence operator scheduling and fuel planning. Routine maintenance considerations for this individual aircraft would center on scheduled engine and airframe inspections consistent with the model’s turbine twin configuration and its operation under an LLC ownership structure.

As a Cessna 650 Citation VI, this airframe occupies a mid‑sized, high‑performance business jet niche defined by its combination of transcontinental range, high cruise speed, and a multi‑passenger cabin capacity up to 12 seats. The aircraft’s performance figures—427 kt cruise, 2,350 nm range and 51,000 ft ceiling—frame its suitability for owner‑operators or small charter operators seeking rapid point‑to‑point capability within a US operating environment. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific serial (650-0208) and year (1992) will be informed by the airframe’s maintenance history, engine cycles on the dual Garrett TFE731-3B powerplants, and the cabin configuration as registered, all of which affect market appeal within its operational segment.
