N55LX

The airframe bearing registration N55LX is a Cessna 550 Citation II with manufacturer serial number 550-0366. The airframe is listed as owned by WOODBINE AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Lewes, DE, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. Public summaries do not publish a specific build year or detailed historical operations for this tail, and no separate operator entry beyond the registered owner is available. The airframe is valued at $800,000, a figure that reflects its age and configuration relative to contemporary light business jets.

The aircraft carries the baseline cabin arrangement described for the type as a Typical 7–8-place executive layout, and for this specific tail the configuration is noted as Typical 7–8-place executive layout (model baseline); specific fit for this tail not published in public summary. Avionics fit and interior finish for N55LX are not published in available public summaries, so mission equipment and specific passenger amenities are not detailed. With a range of 1,807 nm and cruise speed of 369 kts, the airframe is suited to short- to mid-range corporate missions and cross-country hops from its home base region in Delaware, conducting executive transport or on-demand charter where allowed by the owner. Routine maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on the twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4 turbofans and aging airframe support consistent with Citation II service records.

The Cessna 550 Citation II family occupies the light-cabin, twin-turbofan business jet niche, providing higher cruise speeds and altitudes (up to 43,000 ft) than many piston or turboprop alternatives. Typical competitors include light jets from manufacturers such as Learjet and Hawker models of similar vintage; market demand is often buyer-driven for cost-conscious operators seeking economical acquisition prices. Given the listed value of $800,000, prospective buyers assess engine time, refurbishment needs, and avionics updates as primary drivers of maintenance and resale considerations for this serial 550-0366 airframe.
