RADAR ESTIMATE

What N12BA is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna Citation X on its own yet, so this borrows the Bombardier Challenger 300 curve, scales it to N12BA's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N12BA

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This entry documents airframe N12BA, a 2004-built Cessna 750 Citation X with serial number 7500222, manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by 3HBA LLC, an LLC based in Dallas, TX, US; this ownership is the primary recorded title for the airframe. No separate operator name beyond owner-operator arrangements is published in the supplied data.

Operations & Cabin

Cabin reports for N12BA indicate an operator-configured executive charter layout that charter listings describe as accommodating 8-9 passengers in an executive fit, while the Federal Aviation Administration summary lists 12 seats for the airframe. Typical missions implied by the aircraft’s performance envelope include high-speed, long-range intercity and transcontinental charter flights within its 3,125 nm range and at high cruise speeds near 525 kts, operating to and from Dallas-area bases consistent with the owner’s location. Specific avionics fit, interior refurbishment history, and detailed maintenance records are not published in the provided dataset; maintenance considerations should follow factory recommendations for the twin Allison AE3007C turbofan installation and the Citation X airframe.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna 750 Citation X occupies a performance niche as one of the fastest purpose-built business jets of its era, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental range. In the pre-owned market, examples like N12BA attract demand from charter operators and corporate owners seeking high-speed point-to-point capability; competing models in similar missions include long-range light-to-midsize business jets.
