Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N800WT, is a 1998-built Cessna 550 Citation Bravo with serial number 550-0859. The airframe is recorded as owned by the corporation BODE AVIATION INC, based in Albuquerque, NM, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft has been reported in a charter-configured interior and is valued at $2,000,000, reflecting its age, configuration, and market positioning among late-1990s light business jets. Charter configuration reporting and corporate ownership are the principal notations in the public registry for this airframe.

The aircraft carries a typical executive interior laid out for seven to eight passengers with an aft enclosed lavatory; the unit has been specifically reported in a charter configuration. Specific avionics fit and equipment lists for this tail number are not published in the supplied data. Operationally, the Citation Bravo’s performance—cruise speed of 394 kts and a range of 1,900 nm—supports short to mid-range charter missions and corporate point-to-point trips from its reported base in Albuquerque. Maintenance considerations for this individual airframe would follow factory schedules for the Citation 550 family and the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW530A engines; no unique airframe-specific maintenance history was provided.

As a member of the Cessna Citation 500 series, the Cessna 550 Citation Bravo occupies the light jet niche offering single-pilot capability in many configurations, moderate cabin comfort, and efficient short-to-mid-range performance. Competing models in the era and market include light jets from manufacturers such as Learjet and Hawker 400 series aircraft. Buyer and charter demand for well-maintained, late-1990s Bravos remains tied to factors like engine time, avionics upgrades, and interior condition; the stated valuation of $2,000,000 for this airframe reflects those resale and maintenance considerations.
