Based in Truckee, CA, the owner/operator profile suggests missions from regional business hops and access to high-altitude airports; the aircraft’s performance and low operating weight make it well-suited for quick point-to-point transport within its 1,167 nm range.

The Cessna 510 Citation Mustang occupies the light jet niche, offering turbofan performance for owners seeking compact, efficient point-to-point capability with a ceiling of 41,000 ft and a cruise near 340 kts. In the market it competes with other entry-level VLJs and light jets where owner-operators value simplicity, low single-pilot workload, and modern integrated avionics such as the Garmin G1000. Maintenance and resale considerations typically reflect the airframe’s age (2012) and serial-specific history; corporate ownership structures like Buzzard Aviation LLC often influence utilization patterns and recorded maintenance provenance, which in turn affect buyer and charter demand.
