Model & Market Context

This entry documents airframe N524XA, a 2001-built Cessna 550B Citation Bravo with serial number 550-0988. The airframe is owned by the corporation ON THREE ANGELS WINGS LLC, based in Melbourne, FL, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft is valued at $2,180,000 and presents as a typical executive-configured 2001 Citation Bravo; ownership is held by the single corporate entity listed in registry data.

The cabin is fitted in a typical 8-place executive layout with a forward refreshment/galley, club seating, and an aft belted lavatory, matching the common interior spec for this model. Avionics are listed as Honeywell Primus 1000 as the common fit, with Primus 660 radar noted as an optional feature; maintenance and upgrades would follow Honeywell support paths for the Primus line. Operationally, the aircraft’s 1,658 nm range and 342-knot cruise speed make it suitable for regional executive missions and on-demand charter hops from its home base in Melbourne, FL, US, or similar coastal/regional markets. The twin PW530A powerplants and 45,000 ft service ceiling support efficient climb and cruise profiles typical of light-cabin business jets; maintenance considerations include age-related inspection cycles for a 2001 airframe and engine overhaul planning consistent with Pratt & Whitney Canada intervals.

The Cessna 550B Citation Bravo sits in the light-cabin, twin-engine business jet niche, offering moderate operating costs and runway performance attractive to owner-operators and charter operators. Competing models include other light-cabin jets that prioritize short-field capability and efficient regional range. Given the 2001 build year and the documented $2,180,000 valuation, resale and charter demand will hinge on completed maintenance history, avionics configuration, and interior condition; airframes with Honeywell Primus suites and well-kept interiors typically retain stronger market interest. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe focus on engine life limits, avionics upgrades, and the market appetite for early-2000s Citation Bravos.
