Model & Market Context
This airframe, bearing registration N9072U, is a 1986-built Cessna S550 Citation II/SP with serial number S550-0106. The airframe is listed as owned by N9072U LLC, a limited liability company based in Ocala, FL, US, and is registered in the United States. The configuration and systems reported indicate modernized avionics and ADS-B compliance; recorded valuation for this airframe is $1,100,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit, and market position among late-model Citation IIs. Ownership is held by a named LLC in Ocala, Florida, which is the primary operator/registered entity associated with this registration.
The subject aircraft features an 8-place executive layout with a forward galley and an aft belted lavatory, configured for business or private transport missions emphasizing short- to mid-range point-to-point trips. Cockpit systems include a Garmin GTN 750 providing GPS/COM/NAV capability, and the airframe is reported as equipped with ADS‑B, WAAS, and LPV approaches, supporting modern navigation and regulatory compliance. Typical mission profiles for this fit would leverage the 1,300 nm range and 403 kt cruise for regional travel, while the twin JT15D-4/4B engines and 43,000 ft ceiling permit efficient higher‑altitude cruise and access to favorable winds and traffic flows. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe would align with Citation II/SP schedules and the support network for the Pratt & Whitney JT15D series.
The Cessna S550 Citation II/SP occupies a light-to-mid-size business jet niche focused on cost‑effective regional missions with modest operating costs relative to larger cabin jets. In the pre-owned market, aircraft like N9072U compete with other late‑model light jets offering similar range and cruise performance; buyer demand typically centers on well-equipped, avionics‑upgraded examples. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial include the airframe’s 1986 manufacture date, engine series commonality, and the value impact of avionics upgrades such as the Garmin GTN 750 and ADS‑B/WAAS/LPV equipage.
