N629MD

The airframe bearing tail number N629MD is a 1985-built Cessna 650 Citation III with serial number 650-0096. It is registered in the US and is owned by AIRCRAFT HOLDING SOLUTIONS LLC TRUSTEE, a corporation/trust based in Newark, DE, US. The airframe’s documented configuration and equipment reflect typical Citation III installations for its production era, and its reported market valuation is $1,100,000, indicative of aircraft of this vintage with mixed lifecycle considerations. No public record of earlier operators or unique registry actions beyond the current corporate/trust ownership are provided in the supplied data.

The cabin for this airframe follows the type’s typical 8–12 place executive layout, commonly featuring a forward divan, mid club seating and aft seats with belted lavatory options; this example is documented with a 12-place capacity. Avionics fit for the model is noted as Collins Pro Line II / Sperry-Honeywell SPZ-650 components, consistent with fleet-standard installations that support long-range business missions. Operationally the aircraft’s performance—cruise of 423 kts and a ceiling of 51,000 ft—suits transcontinental and offshore executive transport within the 2,348 nm range envelope. Maintenance and upgrade considerations for this specific airframe would align with legacy systems and engines typical to the Citation III fleet, and the corporate/trust ownership structure in Newark, DE, US may influence custody, maintenance logistics, and transfer procedures.

The Cessna 650 Citation III occupies a late-1970s/1980s super-midsize business-jet niche, offering high-altitude capability and speed relative to light jets of its era. Competing types historically include other super-midsize and early large-cabin business jets; buyers and charter operators value the Citation III for its performance envelope but must weigh aging avionics and airframe lifecycle against acquisition price. For this specific airframe—serial 650-0096—the reported $1,100,000 valuation reflects age, configuration, and prevalent market demand, with maintenance and potential avionics upgrades being primary considerations for resale and operation.
