N550WT

This entry covers airframe N550WT, a 1993-built Cessna 550 Citation II with manufacturer serial 550-0599. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by the corporate operator PLATINUM AVIATION PARTNERS LLC, based in Jacksonville, FL, US. Registered to a Jacksonville corporate owner, the aircraft presents as a typical early-1990s Citation II example in corporate service, with records centered on its corporate ownership and U.S. registration. Public valuation or specific condition reports are not published in the supplied data.

The cabin of N550WT is configured for eight passengers, consistent with short-to-medium-haul corporate transport roles; specifics of interior furnishings and avionics fit are not provided. With a cruise speed of 384 kts and a maximum practical range of 1,900 nm, this airframe is well suited to regional nonstop missions and point-to-point business travel from its operator base in Jacksonville. Maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on the twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4 turbofan engines, each rated at 2,500 lbf, which remain central to operational readiness and cost of ownership. Operated by a Florida-based corporation, routine corporate flight operations and charter-like missions would be typical employment profiles for this specific aircraft.

The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies a performance niche as a light business jet offering higher cruise speed and ceiling relative to earlier Citation models while retaining modest operating costs. With a build year of 1993 and serial 550-0599, N550WT represents a mature airframe in the second-generation Citation family, often competing with contemporary light jets of the era for buyers and charter operators. Market considerations for this model include lifecycle maintenance of airframe and JT15D engines, availability of parts, and resale demand driven by mission suitability—regional corporate transport with an IFR-capable high-ceiling performance profile.
