Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N5ZN, is a 1979-built Cessna 501 Citation I/SP with serial number 501-0115. The airframe is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by PRIDDY ROBERT C of Graford, Texas, who is listed as the individual operator/home base. The record shows standard civil registry actions consistent with private ownership and operation from Graford; current ownership is documented under the individual name and location provided. The airframe carries an estimated market value of $600,000, reflecting its age and configuration.

The cabin of this specific airframe is configured for 8 seats, supporting typical light business-jet missions such as short- to mid-range point-to-point travel consistent with its 1,328 nm range and 323 kt cruise. The operator/home base is recorded as Graford, Texas, indicating regional private use and likely operation from nearby general aviation airports. Avionics fit and interior specification details are not published for this airframe; maintenance and outfitting history beyond ownership registration likewise are not published in the supplied data. Given the single-owner individual record, operational use is likely private transport rather than commercial charter.

The Cessna 501 Citation I/SP occupies the light business-jet niche as a twin-engine, fixed-wing multi-engine platform introduced in the late 1970s, with modest cruise speeds and transregional range suitable for owner-operators. Competing types in the same era and segment offered similar performance; market demand tends to favor well-documented maintenance history and modern avionics upgrades. At an estimated value of $600,000, resale considerations for this serial (501-0115) will hinge on maintenance status, avionics modernization, and interior condition relative to aging airframe and JT15D engine support.
