Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing registration N81AU is a 2000-built Cessna 550 (Citation II/Bravo) with serial number 550-0929. It is recorded as owned by TWFI PARTNERS LLC, an LLC based in Manchester, NY, US, and is entered on the U.S. civil aircraft registry. The airframe is powered by twin Pratt & Whitney Canada engines and retains an executive interior configured for eight occupants. No prior ownership transfers or specific valuation notices are published in the supplied data; avionics fit is reported but not comprehensively documented in public notices provided here.

The subject airframe is outfitted with an 8-place executive layout intended to support owner-flown or light charter missions typical of the Citation II/Bravo class. Avionics are reported as Honeywell Primus / Honeywell 1000, a common fit for upgraded late-model Citation IIs that supports navigation, communication, and flight-management tasks consistent with business transport operations. Based on the registered owner’s location, routine operations and maintenance activities are likely organized from the owner’s base in Manchester, NY, US, though the specific operator or maintenance facility is not listed in the provided data. The combination of a compact executive cabin and a long-range cruise capability supports point-to-point regional missions up to the published maximum range.

The Cessna 550 (Citation II/Bravo) occupies the light business jet niche within the Cessna/Textron Aviation family, offering transregional range and efficient cruise performance. With twin PW530A engines producing 4,000 lbf each and a service ceiling of 43,000 ft, the model competes with other light-cabin jets in owner-operator and small charter markets. Market considerations for this airframe typically emphasize avionics upgrades, interior refurbishment, and engine/airframe maintenance history when assessing resale or continued operational value; the supplied record lists the reported avionics but does not supply maintenance status or a recent appraisal.
