Model & Market Context
This entry documents the specific airframe registered as N7070A, a Cessna S550 Citation S/II built in 1985 with serial number S550-0068. The airframe is recorded as owned by GLOBAL AIRCRAFT TRUST INC TRUSTEE, a corporate owner based in Cheyenne, WY, US, and is registered in the United States. The airframe’s condition is reflected in a market valuation of $900,000, indicative of its status within the mature pre-owned business-jet fleet. Registry and ownership details emphasize corporate trust ownership rather than individual or fractional operation, which can affect operational basing and maintenance oversight.
The subject airframe, N7070A, is configured with an eight-seat cabin consistent with typical Cessna S/II layouts, providing executive transport capacity for short-to-medium haul missions. Although specific avionics fit for this serial are not enumerated here, Citation S/II airframes of this vintage commonly support regional business routes and on-demand charter patterns, exploiting the model’s combination of moderate range and high cruise speed. Based in the United States with corporate trust ownership, maintenance programs and overhauls are likely managed under trustee-directed schedules, which can prioritize longevity and regulatory compliance. The airframe’s JT15D-4 powerplants and established maintenance pathways can present known recurring maintenance items that operators budget for on older airframes.
The Cessna S550 Citation S/II occupies a legacy light-to-midsize business jet niche, offering relatively high cruise speed and a service ceiling suitable for most continental U.S. routes. Competitors historically include other light business jets and earlier-generation Citation models that emphasize operating economics versus newer, higher-performing types. For buyers and brokers, an airframe like N7070A with a $900,000 valuation reflects both the age-related depreciation of a 1985 build and the ongoing demand for affordable, mission-capable turbofan business aircraft. Resale and maintenance considerations center on engine program status for the JT15D-4 units, structural and avionics upgrades, and the documentation trail maintained under corporate trust ownership.
