N650GC

This entry describes airframe N650GC, a factory-built Cessna 650 Citation VI completed in 1992 with serial number 650-0215. The aircraft is recorded in U.S. civil registration as a corporate-owned asset under BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE (a corporation based in Salt Lake City, UT), reflecting a trustee-held ownership structure rather than individual private operation. Registry details show the airframe maintained in the United States and assessed with an estimated market value of $2,000,000. No other operational operators are listed in the supplied data; the aircraft’s condition and valuation suggest continued availability for corporate transport or lease arrangements.

The airframe is outfitted in a typical executive interior for the Citation VI series, described as a 7–9 place executive layout with lavatory and refreshment center while remaining configurable up to 12 seats to accommodate higher-density missions. Avionics are typical of the VI fitments, featuring a Honeywell SPZ-series analog EFIS (SPZ-650/SPZ-8000) paired with Collins communications and navigation equipment, a suite that supports conventional corporate flight ops and IFR route structures. With a maximum certified ceiling of 51,000 ft and cruise capability of 423 kts, the airframe is well suited for medium-haul executive transport and charter missions within its 1,600 nm range profile. Being held by a corporate trustee may influence operational availability and maintenance scheduling under institutional asset management.

The Citation VI occupies the light to mid-size business jet niche within the Cessna/Textron Aviation family, providing turbofan twin performance suitable for corporate executives and charter operators seeking transcontinental regional capability. Competing models historically include other late-model light midsize jets offering similar speed, ceiling, and passenger capacity; the combination of Garrett TFE731 powerplants and Honeywell/SPZ analog EFIS reflects a platform with established maintenance pathways but potential avionics modernization considerations. The indicated market valuation of $2,000,000 points to the aircraft’s depreciated position in the used market, where buyer demand often balances acquisition cost against refurbishment, engine time, and avionics upgrade expenses.
