N704DA

The airframe bearing tail number N704DA is a 1980-built Cessna 550 Citation II, serial 550-0202, currently registered in the United States. The airframe is owned by JAMAIR LLC (an LLC based in Lynchburg, VA, US) and operates from that operator’s home base in Virginia. No other ownership transfers or notable registry actions are published for this specific airframe in the supplied data. Valuation notes indicate an approximate market value of $800,000, reflecting mature age and legacy-system considerations.

The cabin for this specific airframe is fitted in an executive center-club arrangement seating 8 passengers, consistent with typical Citation II executive interiors. While exact avionics fit for this individual airframe is not published, the aircraft’s mission profile—given its 1,900 nm range and 384 kts cruise speed—supports short‑to‑medium‑haul executive transport, regional business trips, and charter use out of Lynchburg, VA. Maintenance considerations for this airframe are those typical of late‑model 1970s/1980s airframes: aging airframe and systems, engine program adherence for the JT15D‑4 turbofans, and potential avionics modernization to meet contemporary airspace requirements. Reported valuation at $800,000 suggests a platform retained in service rather than preserved, with economic operation tied to utilization and upgrade history.

The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies a light‑to‑small midsize business jet niche with improved payload and range over earlier Citation models, enabling trans‑regional missions up to roughly 1,900 nm and cruise at about 384 kts to FL43,000. Contemporary competitors historically include early Learjet and Beechjet family aircraft; buyer demand is driven by low acquisition cost and commonality for operators seeking economical used business jets. For this particular airframe, resale and maintenance considerations hinge on age (1980 build), engine time on the JT15D‑4 powerplants, and any avionics/airframe refurbishments that would affect its current $800,000 market value.
