Description
N256CP is a very capable light jet with 40+ knots faster than Citation II and a range of about 1600+nm. What separates this jet amongst 99% of the rest of the fleet is that this one comes with the wider and hard to find “CARGO DOOR.” There are 8,500 hours total time on airframe. New Paint and Interior refurbishments were performed in April 2023. Aircraft fuel capacity is 5,800lbs of fuel (5+ hours) and gives 380+ TAS at FL360. For “AIR AMBULANCE/MEDEVAC” operations for Part 135 Charter, this aircraft has already had the investment into the higher D085 conformity standard of “PART 135 OPERATIONS” and is currently operating on the Part 135 that the aircraft owner also owns (can be sold separately or packaged with the Part 135 Charter Business if wanted). Interior seating offers spacious 4 place club seating, 2 person side divan and 1 Belted Lav seat. Another big advantage is that this aircraft can be flown “SINGLE PILOT” under Exemption. Additional upgrades include: SANDEL PFD, GNS 500/WAAS, MFD, Skywatch, Wx Radar, ADSB-Out and FMS. RIGHT ENGINE: Est. 2,100 hours until OH/LEFT: Est. 1,300 hours until OH. VREF attached we feel is $150k too low if wanting a comparable and available Citation 550 SII that offers the wider “CARGO DOOR” and also the quality of the exterior paint and inside cabin handpicked leather and fabric qualities that this aircraft offers so recently refurbished not too long ago. Location: Virginia. Ask Price: $1.595m
