N83ZA

This article concerns the specific airframe registered as N83ZA, a 1992-built Cessna 560 Citation V with manufacturer's serial number 5600176. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by the corporate entity OP PARTNER INC, based in Odessa, TX, US. Maintenance and equipment records note a significant cabin and avionics refurbishment reported that brought the airframe's systems up to a modern executive configuration; public registry actions are otherwise limited to standard U.S. registration entries. Condition summaries reference the upgraded avionics suite and cabin refit as the primary highlights of recent investment in this airframe.

The cabin for this airframe was reported with a nine-place executive layout after refurbishment, described as a forward two-place divan, a four-place center club, dual aft forward-facing seats and an enclosed aft lavatory as an example interior refit configuration; the overall certified seating count for the aircraft is 11. Avionics upgrades documented for this airframe include a Honeywell five-tube suite with Universal UNS1-LW FMS (WAAS/LPV), Collins communications radios, TCAS-4000 traffic advisory system, Garmin GTX-3000 transponders with ADS-B Out, Honeywell Primus 870 weather radar and a Garmin GMX-200 multifunction display. Typical mission profiles for this airframe type and outfitting include medium-range corporate and charter operations originating from its operator base in Odessa, Texas, leveraging the aircraft’s near 2,000 nm range and 430 kt cruise for efficient coast-to-coast or transcontinental sectors. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe emphasize avionics support and JT15D engine program adherence.

The Cessna 560 Citation V occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche, offering transcontinental capability with a high single-flight ceiling of 45,000 ft and cruise speeds around 430 kts. Competing models in the era and secondary market include other late-model light-medium jets that prioritize range and efficient operating economics; buyer demand for this airframe often centers on the condition of cabin refurbishments and avionics modernization, both of which are notable for N83ZA. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial line include JT15D engine support and the continued value impact of WAAS/LPV-capable FMS and ADS-B compliance equipment.
