N81CB

This entry covers single airframe N81CB, a light business jet built as a Cessna 510 Citation Mustang in 2013, serial 510-0439. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by MUSTANG AERO INC TRUSTEE (a corporation) based in Wilmington, DE, a listed ownership detail reflecting its corporate trustee status. Registry data indicates standard U.S. registration actions consistent with corporate ownership; no additional historic incidents are published in the supplied data. Valuation records for this airframe place it at $2,500,000, representing its market estimate at the time of the supplied information.

This airframe is typically outfitted with a 4-place executive cabin and a limited baggage compartment, reflecting the factory-configured passenger capacity and modest luggage volume for short to mid-range corporate missions. Avionics are listed as Garmin G1000, with many examples of the model later upgraded to the G1000 NXi — a factor frequently noted during operator avionics modernization cycles. Typical mission profiles supported by the airframe’s specifications include short-haul executive transport and air-taxi legs up to its 1,200 nm range at cruise speeds near 340 kts, operating from its corporate base in Wilmington, DE under trustee ownership. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft would follow the Citation Mustang airframe and PW615F-A engine programs and the avionics upgrade pathways common to G1000-equipped fleets.

The Cessna 510 Citation Mustang occupies the very light jet niche within fixed-wing multi-engine categories, offering transregional capability with a high-altitude ceiling of 41,000 ft and modest operating economics implied by its powerplant and seating. With a market value indicated at $2,500,000 for this airframe, buyer and charter demand generally centers on owners seeking compact executive transport with modern integrated avionics and limited cabin capacity. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific serial include the lifecycle of the Pratt & Whitney Canada PW615F-A engines and common refurbishment or avionics upgrade paths (notably G1000 to G1000 NXi) that affect marketability and hourly operating cost trends.
