N124HB1996 Cessna Citation VII

Overview

This entry covers airframe N124HB, a 1996 production example of the Cessna 650 Citation VII with serial number 650-7067. The jet is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by Bas Part Sales LLC, a corporation based in Greeley, CO, US. The combination of age, equipment fit and current ownership suggests it is operated or maintained for asset preservation, parts support or limited active service.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin on N124HB is arranged in an eight-passenger center-club configuration with two executive tables, two aft forward-facing chairs, one forward side-facing seat and a fully enclosed belted aft lavatory, supporting executive transport and short-to-medium international missions within the aircraft’s 1,715 nm range. Avionics installed include a Honeywell SPZ-8000 EFIS & Autopilot package, dual UNS FMS units, Mark VII EGPWS, TCAS II CAS-67A (Change 7.1), Primus 880 weather radar and ADS-B Out installed via STC, enabling contemporary navigation and traffic situational awareness for single-crew or two-crew operations. Typical missions for this airframe profile would be owner-flown executive hops, charter legs, or parts/support ferry flights operated from its owner’s base in Greeley, CO; maintenance considerations reflect the mature airframe age and the need for life-limited component tracking and avionics currency.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna 650 Citation VII occupies the high-performance light/entry midsize business jet niche with transcontinental capability when outfitted and upgraded, offering cruise speeds near 417 kts and a service ceiling of 51,000 ft. Competing models in the same era include later Citation variants and light midsize types from Gulfstream, Dassault Falcon 10/20 derivatives, and early Learjet series; buyer demand for older VII airframes is typically price-sensitive and dependent on avionics fit, engine TSIs and maintenance history.
