N69AY

This article describes a specific airframe, N69AY, a 2008 production Cessna 510 Citation Mustang with serial number 510-0115. The airframe is manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation) and is currently registered in the United States to the corporation GS BROTHERS INC of Groveland, CA, US, which serves as its operator/home base. The U.S. registry lists a total of seven seats for the aircraft, and the Mustang is recorded with a market valuation of $1,800,000; registered ownership to a corporate entity suggests business or on-demand use rather than private individual ownership.

The cabin in this specific Mustang retains the factory four-place club configuration for passengers while the registry lists a total of seven seats including flight crew and belted aft seats, reflecting the common production layout for the type. The flight deck is equipped with the factory-installed Garmin G1000 avionics suite, consistent with production Mustangs and supporting integrated flight, navigation and system displays. Typical missions for this airframe, given its 1,150 nm range and 340 kt cruise, would include short-to-medium business hops, regional charter operations, and corporate positioning flights from its base in Groveland, California. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with light business jet service norms, with attention to the PW615F-A engines and G1000 avionics life‑cycle and scheduled inspections.

As a member of the Cessna 510 Citation Mustang line, Cessna 510 Citation Mustang airframes occupy the entry-level VLJ niche, offering single-pilot capability, modest operating costs, and compact cabin accommodations. Performance figures such as a 41,000 ft ceiling and 340 kt cruise position the Mustang against other very light jets in charter and owner-operator markets. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect age and hours since its 2008 build, factory G1000 equipment which is desirable for continuity, and the PW615F-A engine type which factors into aftermarket support and overhaul planning.
