N567RW Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
N567RW sits in the midsize segment where operating costs balance against cabin comfort and range. The Cessna Citation Ultra covers 2,030 NM at 430 knots. 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-5D at 3,045 lbs each keep fuel burn predictable.
Mission Profile
The Cessna Citation Ultra seats up to 8 passengers in a 17.3 ft by 4.8 ft by 4.8 ft cabin. N567RW delivers the stand-up headroom and seating configurations that distinguish midsize jets from their light-jet counterparts.
Charter Authorization
Charter authorization is active for N567RW under its Part 135 certificate. This Cessna Citation Ultra is positioned for regional and short transcontinental routing. Contact The Jet Finder for scheduling.
Insider Note
Operating costs for the Cessna Citation Ultra range from $2,100-$2,900 per flight hour depending on utilization and maintenance program enrollment. N567RW's operator manages these costs within a Part 135 program where charter revenue is designed to offset fixed expenses.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
N567RW, a Citation under , represents the aircraft that made private jet travel accessible to mid-market companies. Below is the operational context for this airframe.
Fleet Position
Over 3,500 straight-wing Citations were produced, making it the most numerous business jet family in history. FAA data shows N567RW based in —, . Parts support and maintenance expertise are ubiquitous: every Cessna-authorized service center in the U.S. can maintain these aircraft. No other business jet has deeper parts inventory or more available mechanics.
Charter Availability
N567RW is Part 135 charter authorized. Straight-wing Citation charter rates range from $2,200 to $3,800 per flight hour depending on variant. These are among the most affordable jet charter options available. The tradeoff is speed and range: straight-wing Citations cruise at 350 to 420 knots with 1,500 to 2,000 nm range, adequate for regional operations but limited for transcontinental routes.
Mission Profile
Core strength: the lowest total cost of jet ownership. At $2,200 to $3,800 per flight hour, straight-wing Citations deliver jet speed and altitude for less than the operating cost of many turboprops. For organizations that need to fly above weather at 400 knots without spending $5,000+ per hour, the Citation family is the answer.
When to Choose Something Else
Do not charter a straight-wing Citation if speed matters. At 350 to 420 knots, these aircraft are 30 to 100 knots slower than swept-wing jets. On routes over 800 nm, the speed difference adds 20 to 40 minutes versus a Phenom 300 or Learjet 45.
Ownership & Operations
Part 91 operations cover owner-flown and company-flown aircraft under general operating rules. Part 135 governs on-demand air charter, requiring higher crew qualifications, maintenance standards, and operational oversight. An aircraft can operate under both parts: Part 91 for owner use and Part 135 when offered for charter revenue. Dual-use arrangements offset ownership costs by generating charter income during idle periods.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Pre-purchase inspections are non-negotiable in aircraft acquisitions. A qualified maintenance facility conducts a detailed review of airframe, engines, avionics, and records. Inspection costs range from $15,000 to $75,000 depending on aircraft size and complexity. Findings from the pre-buy determine final pricing, identify upcoming maintenance events, and reveal any damage history that affects value.
Charter Market Context
Charter demand for business jets follows seasonal and economic patterns. Q4 (October through December) sees peak demand driven by year-end business travel, holiday flights, and tax planning (asset purchases before December 31). Q1 starts strong with CES, Davos, and Super Bowl driving specific route demand. Summer leisure travel to resort destinations creates predictable seasonal corridors.
