N882KB

This article covers the specific airframe bearing registration N882KB, a 2003-built example of the Cessna 750 Citation X with serial number 750-0216. The airframe was manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and is registered in the United States. The aircraft is held by the corporation F KORBEL & BROTHERS INC, based in Guerneville, CA, US, and operates from that company’s local base for corporate transport and private charter missions. Recent registry records and valuation sources list the airframe’s market worth at $5,100,000, indicating a mature aircraft with retained utility in the long-range business jet segment.

As a factory-configured Cessna 750 Citation X airframe, N882KB is arranged to accommodate up to 12 passengers in a long-range executive layout optimized for transcontinental and continental missions. Typical missions for this registration include long-range corporate travel enabled by the jet’s 3,390 nm range and high-speed cruise of 525 kts, enabling rapid point-to-point movement and time-sensitive itineraries. Avionics and interior specifics for this individual airframe are not published here, but operational considerations for the type include high-altitude cruise planning to FL510 and engine maintenance cycles centered on its paired Rolls-Royce AE3007C turbofans. Corporate ownership by F KORBEL & BROTHERS INC suggests usage consistent with private business transport and episodic chartering.

The Cessna 750 Citation X occupies the high-speed, long-range end of the light/medium business jet market, notable for one of the highest cruise speeds in its class and a 51,000 ft service ceiling. Competitors historically include late-generation Gulfstream light-cabin and Bombardier Challenger-class alternatives that trade speed, range, and cabin volume differently. For prospective buyers or operators of airframes like N882KB, maintenance planning and resale value depend on engine shop visits for the AE3007C units, avionics modernization levels, and completed interior refurbishment; the listed valuation of $5,100,000 reflects these market factors for a 2003 airframe.
