RADAR ESTIMATE

What N158JS is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna Citation Ultra on its own yet, so this borrows the Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve, scales it to N158JS's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N158JS

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

Overview

This article covers the specific airframe bearing registration N158JS, a factory-built Cessna 560 Citation Ultra produced in 2000 with serial number 560-0540. Ownership details are not published; no named owner, operator or home base is recorded in the supplied data. The airframe's configuration and reported performance figures place it within mature business-jet service with conventional maintenance and resale considerations.

Operations & Cabin

The airframe is a seven-seat configuration typical of light-to-midsize Citation interiors; specific cabin layout and finish for N158JS are not published beyond seat count. Avionics fit and equipment list for this serial are not provided in the supplied data, so operational specifics must be inferred from the Citation Ultra standard fits of the era. With a cruise of 430 kts and a range of 1,960 nm, this airframe is suited to point-to-point regional and short transcontinental missions operated from US bases. Routine maintenance considerations reflect twin JT15D-5D engine support and standard Textron/Cessna inspection intervals applicable to a 2000-build Citation Ultra.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna 560 Citation Ultra is positioned in the light-medium business-jet segment, offering higher cruise speed and ceiling compared with earlier Citation variants while retaining compact cabin economics. Competitors in the class include contemporaneous offerings from Learjet and Mitsubishi (predecessor light-corporate jets), with demand driven by buyers seeking efficient short- to mid-range business travel.
