N997EA

This airframe, registered as N997EA, is a Cessna 560 Citation V built in 1992 with serial number 560-0178. The listed owner is 5 Star Aviation LLC (corporation), and the aircraft carries a United States registration. Available valuation data places the airframe at $1,900,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit and typical market position for early Citation V examples. No separate operator or home-base details are published for this specific airframe beyond corporate ownership; no additional registry actions are provided in the supplied data.

The cabin configuration for this airframe follows a typical executive layout: an executive four-place club plus three individual seats with a belted lavatory, supporting a practical 7–8 passenger arrangement within the listed 8 seats. Avionics are fitted in the early Citation V/Ultra fashion with a Honeywell Primus II suite (typical for the model), which informs avionics capability, certifiable procedures and maintenance planning. With a cruise speed of 425 kts and a maximum service ceiling of 45,000 ft, the aircraft’s mission profile is consistent with short- to medium-haul corporate or charter operations up to its maximum practical range of 1,960 nm. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe will reflect its twin JT15D-5A engines and legacy avionics architecture.

The Cessna 560 Citation V occupies a light to light-medium business jet niche, offering trans-regional range and a high cruise speed relative to older piston and turboprop alternatives. In the resale and charter markets, demand is influenced by airframe age, engine time, and avionics configuration; the Honeywell Primus II fit and the listed valuation of $1,900,000 position this airframe among competitively priced early-1990s Citation V examples. Maintenance and parts considerations typically focus on JT15D engine support and potential avionics upgrades for operators seeking modern systems.
