N721T

This write-up covers airframe N721T, a Cessna 550B Citation Bravo built in 2001 with serial number 5500993. The airframe is currently owned by FFM LLC, based in El Paso, TX, US, and carries United States registration. The airframe description and listing information indicate an executive configuration and avionics upgrades consistent with mid-life refurbishments; its market valuation is listed at $1,695,000. Notable registry information includes the transfer to FFM LLC as the named owner and the installation of ADS‑B IN/OUT equipment reported in listings.

The aircraft is fitted in an executive 7-passenger configuration with a forward galley and aft lavatory as reported in listings, allowing for a typical corporate or owner-flown mission profile accommodating one additional seat for a flight attendant or flexible cargo. Avionics are based on the Honeywell Primus integrated suite (Primus/Primus1000 variants) with a Honeywell navigation suite and supplemental dual Garmin GTN 750 units reported in listings, plus ADS‑B IN/OUT installed for compliance and situational awareness. With a 1,900 nm range and a cruise near 399 knots, typical operations for N721T would include regional to transcontinental missions within the continental United States when flown from its El Paso base. Maintenance considerations align with mid-2000s Citation Bravo airframes, with avionics retrofits and ADS‑B installation noted as part of lifecycle upgrades for this specific airframe.

The Cessna 550B Citation Bravo occupies the light-cabin, short- to mid-range business jet niche, valued for efficient cruise, relatively low operating costs, and single- or twin-pilot operation flexibility. Competing models in its segment include other light-cabin jets with similar range and cruise performance; buyer demand often targets cost-conscious owner-operators and charter operators seeking proven reliability. For this airframe, resale and maintenance considerations center on the airframe age (2001), engine model PW530A support, and the presence of updated avionics and ADS‑B, which can favorably affect marketability within the used business jet market.
