N510CN

The airframe bearing tail number N510CN is a 2006-built Cessna 550 Citation Bravo, serial number 550-1124, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is owned by C & N AVIATION LLC (corporate ownership) and is registered in the US. Acquisition by C & N AVIATION LLC represents the principal recorded ownership change for this hull; no home base or further operator affiliations are published. As of the provided valuation, the airframe is listed at $2,200,000, reflecting typical market condition for a mid-2000s Bravo with its specified equipment fit.

The cabin of this specific Citation Bravo is fitted in a typical executive configuration accommodating 7–8 passengers in a club layout with a forward refreshment center and a belted lavatory, suitable for short to mid-range executive transport. Avionics are listed as a typical Bravo-series upgrade with the Honeywell Primus 1000 suite, supporting standard IFR and corporate mission capability. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include single-leg and multi-leg regional hops within the aircraft’s 1,587 nm range and high-speed cruise around 360 kts, often used for owner/operator or charter operations under corporate registration. Maintenance considerations align with the Bravo platform and the twin PW530A engines’ scheduled inspections and overhauls; specific maintenance status or logs are not published.

The Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies the light-cabin, light-business-jet niche within Textron Aviation’s Citation family, offering transregional capability with a high-altitude ceiling of 45,000 ft and efficient cruise performance. Competing models in this segment typically include later-model light-cabins and light midsize jets; buyer demand for well-equipped, late‑production Bravos centers on platform familiarity, operating economy, and avionics upgrades such as the Honeywell Primus 1000. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect age-related component life-limits, engine overhaul horizons for the PW530A engines, and the market valuation benchmark of $2,200,000 for a 2006 serial 550-1124 airframe.
