N57FS

This airframe, registered as N57FS, is a Cessna 650 Citation VI built in 1991 with serial number 6500204. The aircraft is manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation) and is recorded as owned by FOBL INC, a corporation based in Juana Díaz, PR, US. The airframe carries a United States registration (US) and has a documented market valuation of $727,543. Notable registry action includes registration under the named corporate owner in Puerto Rico, and the aircraft’s valuation and age point to a mature light business jet in need of continued airframe and engine-level maintenance attention.

The Citation VI airframe configured for 12 seats typically supports small-group corporate transport, executive shuttles, or charter missions out of its operator base in Juana Díaz, PR, US. Cabin layout for this model is conventionally a single-cabin executive arrangement; specifics for this tail-numbered aircraft are not published beyond the seating count. Avionics fitment for the model varies by retrofit history; no individual avionics list is provided for N57FS, so operational assumptions follow the Citation VI baseline for regional high-speed, medium-range missions. Typical employment emphasizes point-to-point regional flights within the aircraft’s 2,348 nm range and cruise speed near 491 kts, with operations taking advantage of a high service ceiling of 51,000 ft for favorable fuel burn and traffic avoidance. Maintenance considerations center on the twin Garrett TFE731 turbofan engines and airframe systems commensurate with a 1991-built airframe.

The Cessna 650 Citation VI occupies a niche as a stretched, higher-performance variant within the Citation family, offering transregional capability and high cruise speed relative to earlier light jets. Competing models in its era included other late-1980s to early-1990s light-to-midsize business jets, where buyer demand favors proven reliability, range near 2,348 nm, and climb performance to ceilings like 51,000 ft. For this specific airframe, the recorded valuation of $727,543 reflects age, market supply, and the maintenance status typically required for continued commercial or corporate operation, with particular attention to TFE731 engine support and periodic avionics upgrades.
