N904J

This entry covers airframe N904J, a 1991-built Cessna 560 Citation V with manufacturer serial 560-0144, produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by JETRAN LLC, an LLC based in Horseshoe Bay, TX, US; this ownership and home-base association are the principal operator details on record. There are no additional publicized registry actions or historic operator changes beyond the current LLC ownership noted in the registration data. The airframe’s market valuation is recorded at $1,900,000, reflecting its age, configuration, and typical condition profile for a 1991 Citation V.

The airframe is registered with an executive cabin described as an Executive 11-place layout (per registration; typical executive seating 7–11), indicating a full executive interior capable of carrying up to eleven occupants in a corporate configuration. Operationally, a Citation V with this performance profile (420 kt cruise, 1,960 nm range, 45,000 ft ceiling) is typically employed on short- to medium-range corporate missions, day-to-day charter or owner-flown transport from its Horseshoe Bay, Texas base. Avionics fit specifics are not published in the provided data; maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow known JT15D-series engine programs and Citation V structural/avionics inspection cycles consistent with a 1991 build.

The Cessna 560 Citation V occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering higher cruise speed and altitude capability than entry-level light jets while remaining cost-effective compared with larger midsize jets. Typical competitors include other late-model light-to-super-light jets of similar vintage. Buyer and charter demand for aircraft of this vintage hinges on interior condition, avionics modernization, and engine program status; the listed valuation of $1,900,000 positions this specific airframe within established resale ranges for well-maintained early-1990s Citation Vs. Maintenance and resale considerations emphasize the JT15D engine maintenance history and any upgrade history for avionics and cabin refurbishment.
