N793AA

This entry covers the airframe bearing tail number N793AA, a Cessna 501 Citation I/SP manufactured in 1979 with serial number 501-0106. The aircraft is registered to MCH AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Chapin, SC, US, and operates under a US civil registration. The airframe’s documentation and sales listings have noted avionics and systems updates over time; listings also report a typical executive-condition configuration and market-condition considerations for late-1970s light jets. No other ownership transfers or notable registry actions beyond the current LLC registration are published in the supplied data.

The airframe is configured in an 8-place executive layout with forward club/club-style seating, a forward galley, and an aft lavatory as reported in sales listings, aligning with standard light-cabin business missions. Avionics as-equipped in listings include an Avidyne GX500 MFD, Garmin GTN-625 navigator and a Sperry SPZ-500 autopilot, with various updates reported in sales literature — equipment that supports IFR cross-country and single-pilot executive operations. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft include short- to medium-range corporate and owner-flown trips within its 1,328 nm range and high-speed cruise capability; based operations are indicated by the owner location in Chapin, SC, US. Maintenance considerations reflect the airframe’s age and systems update history reported in listings, with attention to legacy JT15D engine support and avionics retrofit records.

The Cessna 501 Citation I/SP occupies the light, entry-level business-jet niche for late-1970s designs, offering relatively high cruise speed and a 41,000 ft service ceiling for its class. Competing models historically include other early Citation variants and contemporary light jets, where buyers prioritize operating economy, upgradeable avionics, and proven Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D engine support. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on documented avionics updates, total-time/inspection status (not published here), and continued supportability of legacy systems reported in sales listings.
