N9228Z

This entry documents airframe N9228Z, a 1985-built Cessna S550 (Citation S/II) with serial number S550-0057. The aircraft is manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and is registered in the US. Ownership is recorded to N9928Z LLC, an LLC based in Greeley, CO, US, and the airframe is currently valued at $900,000. Maintenance and registry activity records are limited in this data set; notable recorded information includes the original build year, serial, and the current LLC ownership and valuation.

The airframe is configured in a typical executive layout for the model with a 6–8 passenger cabin arrangement, featuring a forward galley and a belted aft lavatory. Operated from an owner based in Greeley, CO, US, the aircraft’s combination of a 1,998 nm range and 403 kt cruise speed suits regional point-to-point business missions and longer short-haul transcontinental segments within continental U.S. limits. The twin JT15D-4B engines, each rated at 2,500 lbf, support cruise operations up to a service ceiling of 43,000 ft, which aligns with standard operational envelopes for light business jets of this vintage. Specific avionics fit and maintenance history are not published in the supplied data.

The airframe belongs to the Cessna S550 (Citation S/II) family produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation) in the mid-1980s and classified as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet. With an eight-place cabin, near-2,000 nm range, and high-single-digit-to-mid-three-hundred-knot cruise capability, the type occupies the light business jet performance niche. The listed valuation of $900,000 for this 1985 airframe reflects its age and market position among older Citation S/II examples, with attendant considerations for ongoing maintenance, component cycles, and lifecycle support typical for aircraft of this vintage.
