Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N66BK, a 1982 Cessna 501 Citation I/SP bearing serial number 501-0254. The airframe is registered in the United States and has been listed in the civil registry to JL&GL PRODUCTIONS LP, a partnership based in Brentwood, TN, US. The aircraft is single‑pilot certified in the I/SP configuration and registry detail shows an eight‑seat executive layout; no formal public record of major ownership changes or notable incidents is provided in the supplied data. Maintenance and condition highlights are limited to registry and equipment notes rather than specific recent valuations or damage history.
The cabin of N66BK is configured and listed for an eight‑seat executive layout while retaining the factory single‑pilot I/SP certification, which supports operation without a second flight crew member under appropriate regulatory and operational limitations. Reported navigation and avionics fit for this specific airframe included a mix of Garmin GNS‑430/530 units along with standard IFR radios and an autopilot; no TAWS was reported in the available equipment summary. Typical mission profiles for this airframe would leverage the Citation I/SP’s short‑field and regional executive transport capability, with range and cruise performance suited to multi‑city U.S. hops from its Brentwood/Tennessee operator base. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft would center on JT15D engine support and avionics lifecycle items common to retrofit Garmin installations.
The Cessna 501 Citation I/SP occupies a light business jet niche with modest range and high single‑pilot utility relative to larger Citations, appealing to owner‑operators and small charter operators seeking efficient regional capability. Competing types in the market segment include early Learjet and Falcon variants and later light jets offering improved avionics and performance; resale and maintenance considerations for N66BK reflect JT15D engine support, the airframe’s vintage (1982 manufacture, serial 501-0254), and the extent of avionics modernization such as GNS‑430/530 installation. Buyer interest typically focuses on proven systems, single‑pilot certification, and documented maintenance records for older Citation I/SP airframes.
