Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N982NA, is a 1982-built Cessna 550 Citation II with serial number 550-0345. It is recorded as owned by PARATUS JETS LLC, a corporation based in Auburn, IN, US, and operates on a United States civil registration. The airframe configuration is consistent with an executive transport role and has an on-record seating capability for eight passengers. No public record of significant registry actions or valuation adjustments is supplied beyond the stated corporate ownership.
The cabin of this specific Citation II follows the typical 7–8-place executive layout, accommodating up to 8 seated passengers in an executive configuration. Operated by PARATUS JETS LLC out of Auburn, IN, the aircraft is suited to short- to medium-haul executive missions, regional charters, and owner-operated business flights leveraging the type’s speed and range. Avionics specifics and interior finish levels are not published here; maintenance considerations for this airframe would align with the twin-JT15D powerplant and airframe age, including routine inspection schedules and component life-limits typical of early-1980s Citation II examples.
The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies the light-medium business jet niche, offering transcontinental-influenced range near 1,998 nm and cruise speeds around 369 kts, propelled by twin JT15D-4 turbofans rated at 2,500 lbf each. In the market, the Citation II competes with contemporaries from mid-sized turbofan categories and is often sought for cost-effective operation and reliability rather than ultra-modern cabin systems. Buyers and charter operators focus on airframe condition, engine cycles, and completion state when assessing resale value and maintenance burden for a 1982-built example such as N982NA.
