Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N922SL is a Cessna 550 Citation II built in 1978 with serial number 550-0034. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by ENCORE AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Indian Trail, NC, US, which serves as its operator/home base for registry purposes. The airframe’s registry reflects continuous civil operation under US registration; ENCORE AVIATION LLC appears as the conveying owner in public records. Valuation and condition details are not published.

The cabin of this specific Citation II is outfitted in an 8-passenger executive layout, consistent with typical light business-jet configurations for single-owner corporate or charter use. With a cruise speed of 369 kts and a range of 1,900 nm, typical missions for this airframe would encompass medium-haul business travel and regional point-to-point trips from its base near Indian Trail, North Carolina. The twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-4 engines, each rated at 2,500 lbf of thrust, support operations to a maximum certified ceiling of 43,000 ft, offering flexibility in flight levels for fuel-efficient climbs and weather avoidance. Specific avionics fit and interior amenities for N922SL are not published.

The Cessna 550 Citation II, represented here by serial 550-0034, occupies the light corporate jet niche that prioritizes short- to medium-range efficiency and modest cabin comfort for up to eight passengers. Competing types historically include other light-cabin jets with similar range and cruise profiles; buyers and charter operators often value the Citation II for proven JT15D powerplants and a straightforward systems architecture. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe will reflect its 1978 build year, cumulative maintenance history, and the market for well-maintained legacy Citations rather than newer-generation light jets.
