Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N628GB is a 2001-built Cessna 550 Citation Bravo, constructor serial 550-0991. It is owned by MMX LLC, based in Chesapeake, VA, US, and is registered in the US. Registered to MMX LLC in Chesapeake, Virginia, the airframe presents as a typical early-2000s Bravo example with ownership and base of operations remaining with a single private LLC; valuation records indicate a market value of $1,800,000, reflecting its age, avionics baseline, and maintenance status among comparable Citation Bravos.

The airframe is outfitted in a typical executive configuration and is described as having a 6–8 place layout with a forward galley and a belted lavatory; owner/operator configurations may vary and this example is listed with an 8-seat arrangement. Avionics are reported with the Honeywell Primus 1000 as the baseline fit for Citation Bravo models, with many Bravos later receiving UNS‑1/FMS upgrades; this airframe is consistent with that lineage and may carry the typical Primus 1000 fit or subsequent upgrades. Typical mission profiles for the type and this airframe include short- to medium-haul corporate and owner-flown trips within a roughly 1,900 nm radius, operating from its Chesapeake base to continental U.S. destinations and nearby international points. Maintenance considerations align with legacy Citation Bravo norms — twin PW530A engines and older avionics suites commonly prompt phased upgrades or avionics retrofits during mid-life inspections.

The Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies the light-cabin, twin-jet niche within Textron Aviation’s Citation family, balancing efficient cruise (around 394 kts) and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft for transregional business missions. Competing models in its era include similarly sized light business jets that emphasize operating economy and runway performance. Buyer and charter demand for a 2001 Bravo like N628GB is influenced by airframe hours, engine status (PW530A lifecycle), and avionics modernization; resale value near $1.8M reflects these combined factors and typical market depreciation for early-2000s Bravos. Regular maintenance, potential UNS‑1/FMS avionics upgrades, and continued owner-operated basing in Chesapeake are salient considerations for operators and prospective purchasers.
