N544CG

This entry covers airframe N544CG, a 1992-built example of the Cessna 550 Citation II with serial number 550-0701. The airframe is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by COULSON AVIATION (USA) INC, a corporate owner based in Portland, Oregon. The aircraft’s registry and corporate ownership indicate an operator and legal base in the US Pacific Northwest, and its market valuation is listed at $900,000, reflecting its age and configuration.

The cabin of this Cessna 550 Citation II is configured for 8 seats, consistent with typical light-cabin corporate layouts used for short to medium-length executive transport. Specific avionics and interior fit for N544CG are not published; however, in service this airframe is suitable for point-to-point corporate missions and charter work within the continental United States given its 1,998 nm range and high-speed cruise of 403 knots. Operated from the owner’s base in Portland, OR, the aircraft’s operational profile would commonly include day-crew corporate flights, regional charters, and repositioning legs. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the twin JT15D-4 turbofan powerplants and a certification era of the early 1990s, with continuing airworthiness managed under standard US registry procedures.

The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies the light-cabin, multi-engine business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability on shorter sectors with a service ceiling of 43,000 feet and reliable JT15D-series powerplants. Competing models in its era and market segment include other light-to-midsize business jets that balance speed, range, and operating cost. Given the airframe’s 1992 manufacture date and the listed value of $900,000, resale considerations focus on engine hours, avionics upgrades, and interior refurbishment to maintain charter or corporate utility.
