RADAR ESTIMATE
What N174DR is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna Citation II on its own yet, so this borrows the Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve, scales it to N174DR's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N174DR
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This entry describes airframe N174DR, a 1979-built Cessna 550 Citation II with serial number 550-0074. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by Ial Corp, a corporate owner based in Wilmington, DE, US. Notable registry actions include its continuous US registration under a corporate operator and periodic maintenance to sustain executive interior and systems condition.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of this Citation II is fitted in a typical executive layout accommodating 6-8 passenger configurations, with single-club and forward seating arrangements commonly found on Citation II airframes. Operated by a corporate owner in Wilmington, DE, US, typical mission profiles for this airframe include short-to-medium international hops and domestic business trips consistent with its 1,998 nm range and 403 kts cruise capability. Avionics fit is not specified in the provided data; however, operational considerations for this airframe include upkeep of JT15D-4 turbofan engines and time-dependent maintenance associated with late-1970s airframes. Cabin amenities generally reflect executive transport standards of the type and era, and corporate operation implies scheduled maintenance to maintain interior and systems for business use.
Model & Market Context
As a member of the Citation II family, the Cessna 550 Citation II occupies a light-to-midsize business jet niche offering higher cruise speeds and ceilings than many earlier light jets. Competing models in its era and resale market include comparable light jets that balance operating costs with passenger capacity and transcontinental capability. Maintenance and resale considerations emphasize engine life, avionics modernization, and interior refurbishment to remain competitive.
