N638AH

This airframe, registered as N638AH, is a 2009-built Cessna 510 Citation Mustang with serial number 510-0167. It is owned by TFK Aviation Inc (a corporation) based in Pacific Palisades / Van Nuys, CA, US, and carries United States registration. The airframe’s operational record centers on private corporate use from the Southern California area; its registry reflects civilian corporate ownership with a West Coast operator/home base in the Los Angeles region. Valuation assessments list the aircraft at $2,325,000, consistent with an in-service Mustang of its year and configuration.

The cabin of N638AH is fitted in a 4–5 passenger executive layout with club seating and a small aft lavatory/refreshment area, reflecting a typical light-jet corporate interior optimized for short to mid-range executive transport. Avionics are provided by a Garmin G1000 suite, supporting single-pilot or dual-pilot IFR operations and modern cockpit situational awareness for routes within the aircraft’s 1,167 nm range. Typical missions flown by the current corporate owner include regional hops and point-to-point charters from Van Nuys and nearby airports, leveraging the Mustang’s rapid climb to a 41,000 ft ceiling and cruise speed near 340 kts. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow factory service schedules for the PW615F engines and Garmin avionics stack under corporate upkeep practices.

The Cessna 510 Citation Mustang occupies the entry-level very light jet niche, offering compact executive transport with low operating costs relative to larger light jets. With twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW615F engines producing 1,460 lbf each, the type competes with other VLJ offerings and older light jets for owner-operators and charter brokers seeking short-haul speed and cabin comfort for four to five passengers. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2009 airframe hinge on engine cycles, avionics updates (notably the Garmin G1000 fit), and localized demand in U.S. West Coast charter markets, where values near $2,325,000 reflect age, configuration, and operational history.
