1980 CESSNA CITATION II

1980

Used

N726HA

Best value, rare 11 seat, long 2300mi range, Garmin updated, good engine times, excellent maintenance history! Best Citation 550 you can buy for the price. (Please watch the video, my videos are considered the best aircraft reviews with almost 2 million views of my channel.) Lots of time left on both engines, nice paint and luxury interior, hard to find 11 seat arrangement, belted lavatory seat with privacy curtain, Gross weight upgrade allows higher 6450lb payload. Long range of 2300 miles. All major 1-5 phase inspections recently completed, maintained to strict FAA supervised Part 135 standards. Professionally flown. Garmin avionics upgrade, LED lights. Freon AC upgrade and speed brakes. It's rare to find all these in a Citation below one million since most aircraft for sale in this range have expensive maintenance coming due or low engine times remaining. I've flown this plane close to the ceiling and it's very economical. Using only 650 to 800 lbs at altitude. Please watch the full detailed video including the flight, performance, comparison and especially the 12 most important facts buyers need to consider when buying a jet. You can find it in the tab labeled 'Video' above the photos or on our website. History: The previous owner had the plane for decades. Hangar kept and professionally flown with FAA supervised and trained pilots. No factor but I like to mention that 37 years ago it had a minor ground incident on the ramp. It was repaired by the Cessna factory. I didn't have any concern about it because it was very long ago and when the Cessna factory did the repair they made it to better than original quality with newer parts. Pilots: CE500 type rating covers 11 different models, the largest pool of qualified pilots available. Great Jet for a lower price. I can arrange inspection, send you digital logs, CAMP reports to see maintenance and upcoming items and can arrange transport after the purchase. Also help to get a very good insurance rate.

Useful Load: 6455 lbs Performance: Citation II cruises just under 400 knots; maximum operating speed of Mach 0.7. Can carry up to 11. Max range of 2000nm. Ceiling of 43,000ft. Landing roll only 3000 and take off roll about 3000-3400ft so you can operate on shorter runways. The engines have 5000 lbs of thrust, climb rate over 3000ft/min and even a single engine can climb at 1000ft/min, flight into known icing certified, certified and equipped to fly RVSM altitudes. One of the highest production lines. Solid, reliable airplane. Great design and success of these models means they continue the Citation production still today.

That's a lot for a jet since it takes only 8 hours to fly across the continent. One engine is almost new, only 2488 hours since new which is very rare and a great advantage. Price adjusted value for a new engine would be around a million dollars today. JT15D-4 medium bypass engine for balanced power and economy. A reputation of robust reliability. Both engines have upgraded, on condition blades to reduce cost and labor time. I prefer without thrust reversers. It reduces maintenance cost and expenses and adds 300-400lbs of useful load. Even without speed brakes or heavy braking the plane can land on shorter runways. Good availability, you can exchange the engines when time for overhaul, which is low cost and faster.

If I had the option, I would always prefer Part 135 maintained airplanes like this one. Maintained to Part 135 standards which are much stricter than 91. It is FAA supervised maintenance. I recently had an inspection with 3 FAA Inspectors going through all logs and aircraft. Phases 1-5 done mid-2025.
