Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N785CW, is a Cessna 550 Citation Bravo built in 2000 with serial number 550-0916. It is owned by Construction Solutions & Consulting LLC, an LLC based in Sedalia, MO, US, and is registered in the US civil registry. The airframe’s documented valuation is $1,650,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit and market position for turn-of-the-century Citation Bravos. Maintenance history and specific registry actions beyond ownership and US registration are not published.
The cabin is fitted in a typical executive centre‑club configuration accommodating 6–8 places with a forward galley and belted lavatory, suitable for corporate or owner-operator missions. Avionics are the Honeywell Primus 1000 (Primus EFIS), providing a glass flight deck installation consistent with the model’s retrofit and factory options of the era. With a cruise of 342 knots and a range of 1,900 nm, the aircraft is suited to short- to medium‑range executive transport, region‑to‑continental hops, and business charter operations operated from its home base in Sedalia, MO. Operational considerations for this specific airframe include systems and engine support for the PW530A powerplants and the typical maintenance items associated with a 2000‑model Citation Bravo.
As a member of the Citation Bravo family, this Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies a performance niche defined by transcontinental capability at moderate operating cost, a high single‑cruise speed relative to light jets of its vintage, and a service ceiling of 43,000 ft. The twin PW530A engines and Honeywell Primus 1000 avionics reflect a balance of performance and avionics sophistication for a 2000 build. Market and resale considerations for this airframe are influenced by its eight‑place executive layout, the documented valuation of $1,650,000, engine maintenance status, and avionics fit—factors that drive buyer and charter demand for vintage Citation Bravos.
