N51JV

The airframe bearing tail number N51JV is a 1984-built Cessna 650 Citation III, serial number 650-0050, manufactured by Cessna. The aircraft is owned by SKY GLOBAL LLC, an LLC based in San Juan, PR, and is registered in Puerto Rico under the national designation PR. Registered in Puerto Rico and operated from a Caribbean base, this specific Citation III displays a reported market value of $704,710, reflecting its age, configuration and any retrofits noted in records.

The aircraft is fitted in an executive nine-passenger configuration with a forward two-place divan, mid/aft club seating, and a belted lavatory, matching a typical corporate transport fit for short to mid-range missions. Avionics noted for this airframe include a Garmin GTN-750 and Collins EFIS/RNAV components; records also indicate that AlliedSignal/Honeywell TCAS and EGPWS have been reported on retrofitted examples of this airframe type. Based in San Juan, the airframe’s cruise speed of 472 kts and range of 2,348 nm suit regional point-to-point travel across the Caribbean and to nearby continental destinations, while the 51,000 ft ceiling supports efficient high-altitude operation. Maintenance and outfitting considerations for this individual jet would include systems common to late-model retrofits and the integration of modern navigation and safety upgrades reported on similarly retrofitted Citation IIIs.

The Cessna 650 Citation III airframe represented here aligns with the family’s long-range, high-altitude business-jet role, offering transregional capability with efficient twin turbofan powerplants. With a nine-seat executive cabin and the specified performance figures, this airframe occupies a niche for operators needing fast cruise and extended range without larger-cabin logistics. Buyer and charter demand for such older Citation IIIs typically hinges on condition, avionics and safety retrofits—elements reflected in the presence of a GTN-750 and reports of TCAS/EGPWS upgrades—and the reported market valuation of $704,710 informs resale and maintenance planning for continued operation.
