N525PE

This entry documents airframe N525PE, a Cessna 550B Citation Bravo manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation) and built in 2002 with serial number 550-1031. The airframe is recorded as owned by FLITEACCESS LLC, an LLC based in Louisville, KY, US, and is registered in the US; registration and ownership are reflected in current civil aircraft records. The airframe carries a market valuation of $2,200,000, with condition and valuation reflecting its 2002 build and installed equipment. Notable registry actions are limited to its current ownership filing with the listed Louisville-based operator.

The airframe is configured for an eight-seat executive cabin typical of light business jets in its class, supporting short to mid-range corporate and charter missions. Its avionics fit follows the common Citation Bravo series installation, the Honeywell Primus 1000, providing integrated flight, navigation, and systems displays for single- or dual-pilot operations. Based in Louisville, KY, the aircraft is suited to regional transcontinental hops within its 1,744 nm range and high-speed cruise of 402 kts, commonly used for point-to-point business travel and on-demand charter work. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on the twin PW530A turbofan engines and age-related avionics/service bulletins typical for a 2002-built Citation Bravo.

The Cessna 550B Citation Bravo occupies the light business jet niche, offering a balance of operating economics, cabin utility for up to eight passengers, and a high single-flight cruise and ceiling capability. Competitors in the segment include other light-cabin jets of similar vintage and capability; buyer and charter demand frequently emphasizes reliability, operating costs, and avionics standardization such as the Honeywell Primus 1000 fit. For resale and maintenance, factors tied to a 2002 serial like 550-1031 include engine cycles on the PW530A installations, modernization of avionics if desired, and the demonstrated market valuation of $2,200,000.
