RADAR ESTIMATE
What N18HJ 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 N18HJ's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N18HJ
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
The airframe bearing tail number N18HJ is a 1988-built airframe of the Cessna 550 Citation II, manufacturer serial 550-0587, currently registered in the United States. The aircraft is owned by the Texas-based corporation Fanac LLC, located in Palestine, TX, and is recorded as a corporate operator/home-base arrangement. Registry status and notable maintenance entries are not published beyond the ownership and registration details provided.
Operations & Cabin
This specific Citation II is fitted in a typical eight-passenger executive layout with a center-club seating arrangement and a forward refreshment center; the exact interior fit and finish beyond that configuration are not published. The combination of a 1,900 nm range and a 384-knot cruise speed suits the airframe to short international or domestic corporate missions, point-to-point charter hops, and owner-operated business travel from its Palestine, TX base. Avionics fit and modifications for this serial are not provided, so equipment specifics and any upgraded flight-deck systems remain unlisted. Given its twin JT15D-4 engines and 1988 manufacture date, routine maintenance considerations for this airframe would focus on age-related inspections, engine life limits, and corrosion-prevention measures typical for late-model Citation light jets.
Model & Market Context
The Cessna 550 Citation II family occupies the light-cabin, multi-engine business jet niche, offering modest range and high-speed cruise for short- to mid-range corporate missions. Competitors in its vintage class include other late-model light jets offering similar cruise speeds and seating capacities; buyer and charter demand for such airframes is driven by operating economics, maintenance history, and interior condition.
