N650KP

This article covers airframe N650KP, a factory-built Cessna 650 Citation III completed in 1985 with manufacturer serial 650-0095. The airframe is registered in the US and is documented as owned by KP Aviation Management LLC (an LLC based in Sacramento, CA, US), which functions as the registered operator/home base entity. There are no other public registry events listed for this specific airframe; the entry valuation for the asset is recorded as $1,000,000, reflecting a snapshot condition/value point for this airframe. Ownership by KP Aviation Management LLC is the notable management detail associated with this airframe.

The cabin for this airframe follows the executive layout typical to the type, commonly configured for 8–12 seats with club and forward-conference arrangements appropriate to corporate transport and fractional/charter use. Avionics reported for the airframe are the Collins Pro Line II / typical ProLine-era suite, with variations possible where retrofits have been applied; this indicates a ProLine-era fit that can affect avionics upgrade and maintenance planning. Typical missions for an airframe with the stated range of 2,348 nm and cruise of 423 kts include medium to long-range corporate transfers and point-to-point business travel operated from the owner’s Sacramento, CA base. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe align with legacy ProLine avionics serviceability and the twin TFE731-3B-100S engine maintenance cycles.

The Cessna 650 Citation III airframe represented here combines high-altitude capability to 51,000 ft, long-range capability and high cruise speed for its era, characteristics reflected in this airframe’s performance numbers. Those attributes position this particular airframe for operators seeking a transcontinental-capable executive transport within the fixed-wing multi-engine category. With a recorded valuation of $1,000,000, resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe will hinge on avionics retrofit status, airframe hours, and ongoing engine maintenance of the two TFE731-3B-100S powerplants.
