N978TX

The airframe bearing tail number N978TX is a 2002-built Cessna 750 Citation X with manufacturer's serial 750-0187. The airframe is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by RYAN AIR LLC (a corporation based in New York, NY, US), reflecting a corporate ownership structure and an operator/home base linkage to New York. The installation consists of twin turbofan powerplants and a 12-seat interior configuration; the aircraft is valued at approximately $23,700,000, indicating its position in the late-model market for its type. Registry entries and valuation underscore the aircraft's maintained status as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet in corporate service.

The subject airframe is configured to carry 12 passengers, consistent with corporate transport and point-to-point business missions originating from its New York base. Cabin layout and specific avionics fit are not explicitly published in the data set, but the aircraft's long range of 3,390 nm and high cruise speed of 525 kts define typical mission profiles as transcontinental or extended overwater corporate flights. Twin Allison AE3007C engines provide the thrust necessary for operations up to a service ceiling of 51,000 ft, informing maintenance scheduling and engine-specific upkeep cycles. Ownership by RYAN AIR LLC suggests a corporate operating model and ongoing registry activity commensurate with a U.S.-based operator.

The airframe belongs to the Cessna 750 Citation X family, characterized by high cruise speed and long-range capability for a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet, as reflected by the aircraft's 525 kts cruise and 3,390 nm range. Its twin Allison AE3007C engines, each rated at 6,442 lbf, support operations to 51,000 ft, placing the type in a performance niche favoring high-speed, high-altitude corporate missions. At an assessed value of $23,700,000, considerations for buyers and operators include engine maintenance cycles, resale valuation tied to serial 750-0187 condition records, and the corporate ownership profile exemplified by RYAN AIR LLC.
