Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N992CS is a 1982-built Cessna 550 Citation II, serial number 550-0363, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). It is owned by SIERRA BRAVO AVIATION LLC, a corporate owner based in Harrison, AR, US, and is registered in the US civil aircraft registry. The airframe’s documented valuation stands at $580,408, and sales/airframe notes list avionics and equipment that inform its market condition and mission readiness. No other prior ownership lineage or notable registry actions are published beyond the current corporate registration and location.
The cabin for this airframe is configured in the typical 7–9‑place executive layout, commonly accommodating 8 passengers, reflecting standard light-citation executive interiors for the model. Avionics and mission equipment listed in sale and airframe notes include Collins communications radios, a Honeywell Primus 300 weather radar, and a Garmin GPS-500W with WAAS, supporting both basic IFR navigation and enhanced situational awareness for cross-country executive missions. Operated from Harrison, AR, the aircraft is suited to point-to-point business travel and light charter work within its almost 2,000 nm range and high-speed cruise capability, with maintenance considerations typical of early-1980s Pratt & Whitney JT15D-powered Citations, including airframe age-related systems and avionics retrofits documented in the equipment notes.
The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies a light business jet niche, offering transcontinental regional capability with a cruise speed of 403 kts and a ceiling of 43,000 ft, competitive with other late‑1980s light jets. Typical competitors include contemporary models from Learjet and Beechjet families; buyer and charter demand tends to focus on airframe condition, engine hours, and avionics fit—areas partially reflected by the listed Collins, Honeywell, and Garmin equipment. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific 1982 airframe center on lifecycle support for JT15D engines and avionics upgrades to maintain RNAV/WAAS capabilities noted in the sales documentation.
