Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N909SF is a Cessna 550 Citation II built in 1990 with serial number 550-0630. Registered in the US, the specific ownership timeline for this airframe is limited in the available data; no publicized major registry actions or ownership transfers are provided in the source material. Operator details are similarly sparse, though the airframe is consistent with fleets that undergo operator-specific cabin refits and executive configuration changes. Condition and valuation highlights are likewise not published for this particular airframe beyond its preserved identification and configuration baseline.
The cabin for N909SF reflects the Citation II’s typical executive layout, noted as a six- to eight-passenger club configuration, with operator-specific refits being common and therefore actual interior appointments for this airframe may vary. Avionics fit is not specified in the provided data; however, mission profiles for this model typically include short- to medium-range executive transport, point-to-point charters, and corporate travel within the approximately 1,148 nautical mile range. Based on the published seating and performance figures, typical routes for this airframe would be interstate U.S. runs and regional international hops where runway and field performance favor light-jet operations. Maintenance considerations follow the twin JT15D-4 turbofan regime and are influenced by any bespoke cabin refits or equipment changes performed by operators.
As a member of the Cessna Citation family, the Cessna 550 Citation II occupies the light-cabin, twin-turbofan segment, balancing modest operating costs with transcontinental capability in its class. With cruise speeds around 246 kts and a service ceiling near 43,000 ft, it competes with contemporaries that offer similar short- to medium-range executive transport capability. Buyer and charter demand for Citation IIs is driven by mission economics, refurbished cabin quality, and the airframe’s maintenance history; resale and maintenance considerations for this specific serial often reflect the prevalence of operator-specific refits and the lifecycle status of JT15D-4 engine support.
