N787MG Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
2x GE Passport give the Bombardier Global 7500 a service ceiling of 51,000 feet, operating well above weather and congested airspace. N787MG cruises at 516 knots, connecting city pairs across 7,700 nautical miles in a single fuel load. For operators routing New York to Dubai or Los Angeles to Tokyo, this range eliminates the cost and delay of a tech stop.
Mission Profile
N787MG operates in the ultra-long-range category where cabin endurance matters as much as airframe range. The Bombardier Global 7500 typically seats 19 passengers across multiple cabin zones. At 54.4 ft long, 8.0 ft wide, and 6.2 ft tall, the fuselage accommodates stand-up movement, berthing, and a full galley for catered service.
Charter Authorization
Charter authorization is active for N787MG under its Part 135 certificate. This Bombardier Global 7500 operates on-demand, meaning availability depends on the operator's schedule and aircraft positioning. Contact The Jet Finder for a quote.
Insider Note
In this segment, maintenance program enrollment is not optional. N787MG's 2x GE Passport are almost certainly enrolled in a manufacturer-backed hourly cost program, spreading major inspection costs across flight hours rather than requiring lump-sum payments. Buyers should verify enrollment status, as it directly affects resale value and operating budget predictability.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
N787MG is a 1997 Citation under MAKGAB HOLDINGS LLC. The Citation X held the record as the fastest civilian aircraft for 15 years. The CJ4 delivers CJ-family simplicity with mid-jet range.
Fleet Position
Over 800 CJ4/Citation X/Latitude aircraft are in service. FAA data shows N787MG based in POMPANO BEACH, FL. These Citations fill the performance gap between the light CJ series and the super-mid Sovereign/Longitude. Cessna's service network provides the broadest maintenance coverage of any OEM.
Charter Availability
N787MG is Part 135 charter authorized. Charter rates range from $3,500 to $5,500 per flight hour depending on variant. The CJ4 offers the best range in the light jet category (2,165 nm). The Citation X provides Mach 0.92 speed. The Latitude delivers a standup cabin at midsize pricing. Each variant serves a distinct charter niche.
Market Position
As a 1997 airframe, N787MG is a Citation X with Rolls-Royce AE3007C engines. Pre-owned values sit at $3M to $7M. The Citation X held the title of fastest civilian aircraft (Mach 0.92) from 1996 to 2010. At today's pre-owned pricing, the X delivers near-super-mid range at large-cabin speed.
Pre-buy focus: AE3007C engine condition ($800,000 to $1.2M per engine overhaul), avionics modernization, and pressurization system. The Citation X's operating costs are higher than the CJ4 or Latitude due to the AE3007 engines, but the speed advantage is genuine: Mach 0.92 is 50+ knots faster than any Challenger or Phenom.
Mission Profile
These Citations cover the full domestic mission at the lowest operating costs in their respective segments. The CJ4 at $3,000 to $3,800 per hour undercuts the Phenom 300 by $1,000. The Latitude at $4,000 to $5,000 per hour undercuts the Challenger 350 by $1,500. Cessna's cost advantage compounds over 300+ hours annually.
When to Choose Something Else
The Citation X is wrong if operating costs matter more than speed. The AE3007 engines burn 230+ gallons per hour, 40% more than the CJ4. The speed premium costs $1,000+ per hour in fuel alone. Unless time savings directly generate revenue, the speed premium is difficult to justify.
Ownership & Operations
Operating costs for business jets break into fixed and variable categories. Fixed costs (hangar, insurance, crew salaries, management fees) accrue whether the aircraft flies or not. Variable costs (fuel, maintenance reserves, landing fees, handling) scale with flight hours. Owners flying fewer than 200 hours annually often find charter or fractional ownership more economical than whole aircraft ownership.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Total time on airframe and engines is the primary metric for aircraft valuation. Lower-time aircraft command premium pricing but cost more upfront. Higher-time aircraft offer lower acquisition cost but carry higher near-term maintenance exposure. The break-even analysis depends on planned utilization: buyers flying 400+ hours annually amortize acquisition cost faster and tolerate higher initial investment.
Charter Market Context
Jet card programs and membership plans lock in hourly rates for guaranteed availability. Cards typically require a $50,000 to $500,000 deposit and offer 24 to 48 hour booking windows with fixed hourly pricing. The value depends on usage frequency: clients flying 25+ hours annually benefit from rate certainty and guaranteed availability. Below 25 hours, on-demand charter often provides better economics.
