Model & Market Context

The airframe registered as N85AV is a 1999-built Cessna 750 Citation X with serial number 7500085, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is recorded as owned by Bank of Utah Trustee, a corporate owner based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, with its registration carried in the US registry. This transport-category business jet airframe is a fixed-wing multi-engine platform certified with eleven seats; its registry entry and certification status note an executive layout and 11 certified seats as listed in the investigation. The airframe’s ownership by a corporate trustee and its US registration are the principal public registry highlights for this specific airframe.

The airframe is fitted in an executive cabin configuration typically accommodating 8–11 passengers, while the transport-category certification documents list 11 certified seats for this specific serial. Cabin and mission fit focus on transcontinental and intercontinental high-speed transport, exploiting the airframe’s high cruise speed and long-range capability; typical missions for this registration would include private corporate transport and charter work operated from the owner’s Salt Lake City area base. Avionics and maintenance specifics for this serial are not published in the provided data, but operation of twin Rolls-Royce AE 3007C engines and high-altitude capability to 51,000 ft entail established maintenance cycles and service access consistent with Citation X operators.

The Cessna 750 Citation X occupies the high-speed, long-range end of the business-jet market, distinguished by its cruise near 524 kts and long ferry range around 3,460 nm, positioning it against other ultra-fast large-cabin types. Buyers and charter customers prize the model for speed and high-altitude performance, while maintenance and resale considerations for a 1999 airframe emphasize engine program status, avionics upgrades, and overall cycle and corrosion history. For corporate trustee ownerships like Bank of Utah Trustee, fleet management and title/registry clarity are typical priorities when holding an aging Citation X airframe.
