N102VR1999 Cessna Citation X

Overview

This airframe, registered as N102VR, is a 1999-built example of the high-speed business jet Cessna 750 Citation X, serial number 750-0102. It is held by Citation X Leasing LLC, a corporate owner based in Liberty, NC, US, and carries a United States registration. Public records identify the airframe as being part of a leasing/operator pool rather than a single private owner, and common avionics upgrades have been reported in several registry entries.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft is configured in an 8-9 place executive layout with double-club seating typical for charter use, although some records list the airframe with up to 12 configurable seats for higher-capacity missions. Avionics fit in original documentation cites a Honeywell Primus 2000 five-tube suite with dual FMS, and reports indicate common Primus upgrades have been installed on this airframe, improving navigation and flight management capability. Typical missions for this example would include transcontinental and near-international charter operations from its Liberty, North Carolina base, exploiting the model’s high cruise speed and long-range capability. As a leased airframe, maintenance planning emphasizes AVIONICS commonality and engine shop visit scheduling for the Allison AE3007C series powerplants to maximize dispatch reliability.

Model & Market Context

As a member of the Citation X family, Cessna 750 airframes occupy the performance niche for ultra-high-speed, long-range business jets, offering a top-tier cruise speed and high operating ceiling for time-sensitive travel. Competitors historically include later-generation large-cabin and long-range light bizjets; resale and charter demand for late-1990s Citation X examples is driven by airframe condition, installed avionics, and engine life remaining. For this 1999 serial 750-0102, buyers and charter operators focus on the impact of avionics upgrades and the cost of mid-life maintenance events when assessing lifecycle value and operational economics.
