N71LP

This entry covers the specific airframe N71LP, a Cessna 501 Citation I/SP built in 1984 with manufacturer serial number 501-0120. The airframe is owned by the corporate entity Cadre Aviation Services LLC, based in San Antonio, TX, US, and appears on U.S. civil registers as a Citation I/SP. No public record of other ownership transfers or notable registry actions is provided in the data supplied. Condition notes from broker/operator listings indicate an executive interior configuration and an estimated market valuation of $600,000.

Broker and operator listings for this airframe describe a 6-passenger executive layout; interior details beyond the seating configuration are not published in the provided data. Operating performance for typical missions aligns with the airframe’s light-jet profile—short to mid-range business trips within the quoted 1,328 nm range and cruise at 357 kts—often flown from the owner/operator base in San Antonio, TX. Avionics fit, specific maintenance history, and particular cabin amenities for N71LP are not listed in the supplied dataset, although corporate ownership suggests operations under a managed or charter-like operational model. Maintenance considerations for the airframe would follow Citation I/SP type practices and the Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D powerplant requirements.

The airframe is a member of the Cessna 500-series light business jets, the Cessna 501 Citation I/SP, which occupies a niche for economical, short-to-medium range executive transport with twin JT15D turbofans. In the used marketplace, examples with six-place executive interiors and serviceable engines and systems attract buyers seeking lower acquisition cost and straightforward operational capability; the recorded valuation of $600,000 for N71LP reflects age, configuration, and market conditions. Resale and maintenance considerations for this model typically emphasize engine shop visits, airframe corrosion inspections for older airframes, and avionics retrofit options to remain competitive.
