Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N585KT, is a 1982-built Cessna 550 Citation II with serial number 550-0420 manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). Ownership is recorded to Sadler Trevor (Trustee), held in a trust based in Providenciales, and the aircraft carries a US registration; the trust ownership is a notable registration detail that has defined recent operator arrangements. The airframe’s operative base is associated with the Providenciales trust registration, and routine registry entries reflect standard U.S. registration practices. Valuation and current condition summaries are Not published.

The interior of N585KT is fitted in the typical eight-place executive arrangement described as Typical 8-place executive layout (single-class executive seating), providing single-class executive seating for business or private transport missions. Avionics fit and specific equipment lists are Not published, but the combination of a 1,900 nm range and a cruise speed of 369 kts positions the airframe for regional to transcontinental point-to-point missions within North America and nearby island operations from its Providenciales-linked base. Operational usage for this airframe would be consistent with eight-passenger business transport or on-demand charter work, capitalizing on the aircraft’s service ceiling of 43,000 ft for efficient high-altitude routing. Maintenance history and unique onboard amenities are Not published.

As a member of the Citation II family, the Cessna 550 Citation II represented a light corporate jet niche that balances fuel efficiency, moderate payload, and relatively low operating costs for its era. With twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4 engines delivering 2,500 lbf each, the aircraft remains competitive against similar light jets in missions up to about 1,900 nm. Buyer and charter demand tends to focus on airframes with documented maintenance and upgrades; for this airframe, resale and maintenance considerations hinge on age (built 1982), logbook completeness, and any avionics or refurbishment work documented under the current trust ownership.
