RADAR ESTIMATE

What N204CF 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 N204CF's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N204CF

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

Overview

This airframe, bearing tail number N204CF, is a Cessna 550 Citation II built in 1980 with serial number 550-0238. The aircraft is registered in the US and is currently owned and operated by the corporation Corporate Flight Inc, based in Waterford, MI; it is registered to Corporate Flight Inc in Waterford, MI. No additional public registry events beyond standard U.S. registration are recorded in the supplied data.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin of this airframe is outfitted in an 8-place executive layout with enclosed lavatory (8 passengers), configured for business transport and short-to-medium range executive missions. Typical operation profiles for this installation would include regional point-to-point charter or corporate shuttle flights within the aircraft’s 1,159 nm range at cruise speeds near 385 kts, operating from the owner/operator base in Waterford, MI. Avionics fit and specific equipment are not published in the supplied data; maintenance considerations for this airframe follow the Citation II lineage with twin JT15D-4 turbofan support and established maintenance programs. The combination of an enclosed lavatory and eight-passenger seating positions this specific airframe toward executive missions rather than high-density commuter use.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna 550 Citation II occupies a light jet niche, delivering transregional performance with a service ceiling of 43,000 ft and comfortable cabin accommodations for up to 8 passengers. Competing models in the same era and market segment include other light jets equipped for corporate transport; buyer and charter demand historically favors examples with updated avionics and well-documented maintenance.
