N605JY

This entry covers airframe N605JY, a Cessna-built business jet constructed in 1978 with serial number 550-0029. The aircraft is a Cessna 550 Citation II originally produced by Cessna and is presently owned by the Delaware-registered corporation N524MA INC of Wilmington, DE, US. No further historic ownership transfers or notable registry actions have been published for this specific tail. The aircraft carries a reported market valuation of $1,078,429, reflecting its age and configuration.

The airframe is fitted with an 8-passenger executive layout (typical for Citation II) cabin arrangement suited to corporate and private transport missions. Avionics fit and detailed interior finishing for this specific aircraft are not published, so operator-configured equipment and furnishing variations remain unspecified. Given the listed cruise speed of 384 kts and a mission range of 1,900 nm, this airframe is typically employed on regional and short continental hops where point-to-point executive transport is required. Maintenance and airworthiness action history for this tail are not published beyond the recorded ownership and registration details centered in Wilmington, DE.

This example of the Cessna 550 Citation II family demonstrates the platform’s light, multi-engine fixed-wing executive mission capabilities as defined by its performance numbers above. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4 engines delivering 2,500 lbf each and an operational ceiling of 43,000 ft reflect the type’s design priorities of speed, altitude capability, and short-field accessibility in a small-cabin executive layout. The reported valuation of $1,078,429 for this specific serial suggests market considerations tied to manufacturing vintage (1978), original configuration, and corporate ownership structure.
