N550WD

This article concerns airframe N550WD, a 1986-build Cessna S550 Citation S/II bearing manufacturer serial S550-0110. The aircraft is owned by Woodbine Aviation LLC, an LLC based in Lewes, DE, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. With an indicated market valuation of $856,000, the airframe presents as a late-model Citation II-series example that retains an executive interior and conventional systems for its type. No other public registry actions are noted in the supplied data.

The airframe is fitted with a typical executive interior accommodating 7–8 passengers in an executive seating arrangement, featuring a forward galley and a belted aft lavatory as specified for the model. Avionics fit is recorded as Collins Pro Line II, a common retrofit/installation on Citation II/S/II airframes, supporting regional cross-country and charter operations. Typical mission profiles for this configuration include short- to medium-range executive transport or on-demand charter work within the aircraft’s 1,970 nm range and cruise speed of 402 kts. Based at Lewes, DE, US under owner Woodbine Aviation LLC, maintenance considerations follow the airframe’s known jet operator practice for twin JT15D-powered Citations.

The Cessna S550 Citation S/II occupies a performance niche as a light corporate twin-jet offering transcontinental capability in a compact airframe, with a service ceiling of 43,000 ft and cruise speeds near 402 kts. Competing models historically include light-cabin business jets with similar range and speed, and buyer demand often focuses on airframes with upgraded avionics suites such as Collins Pro Line II and well-documented maintenance records. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on engine life remaining on the two JT15D-4B engines, the condition of the executive cabin, and the completeness of logbooks—factors that underpin the stated valuation of $856,000.
