Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N686RC, is a factory-built Cessna 550 Citation II (S550) completed in 1982 with serial number 550-0438. The airframe is listed as owned by NEVADA HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC based in Wetumpka, AL, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft’s official valuation is recorded at $691,569 and it is cataloged in the fixed-wing multi-engine category. Notable registry actions include its original build in 1982 and subsequent registration/ownership transfer to NEVADA HOLDINGS LLC in Wetumpka, Alabama.
The cabin for this airframe follows the typical Citation II executive configuration, accommodating 8 passengers in an executive layout. Avionics fit is not published in the supplied data; operationally the airframe’s performance—particularly its 403 kt cruise and 1,900 nm range—supports short- to mid-range corporate missions, including transregional hops and point-to-point charter-style operations. The aircraft’s registered base in Wetumpka, Alabama, aligns operator activity with southeast U.S. markets. Maintenance considerations specific to this airframe include adherence to legacy JT15D-4 engine support and airframe aging items typical of early 1980s Citations; detailed logbook or avionics specifics are not published.
The Cessna 550 Citation II (S550) occupies a light corporate jet niche for owners and operators needing efficient, higher-speed cross-country capability with modest runway performance. Its competing models historically include contemporaneous light jets with similar seat counts and ranges. Buyer and charter demand for Citation IIs is influenced by platform age, maintenance history, and retrofit potential; resale considerations for this particular serial and valuation must account for airframe year 1982, JT15D-4 engine type, and the recorded value of $691,569.
