INSIDE
The Model 500 five-chair example cabin.
Illustrations of a representative Model 500 five-chair example cabin, not N96JS’s. Every aircraft’s completion differs. Citation I/SP long-wing reference for the qualified later Model 500 design group. This illustration does not establish a Model 501 identity, installed modifications or cabin.
ROUGH RANGE
What N96JS might be worth, and where it’s heading.
A rough range: Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna 500 (Citation-I design) on its own yet. From Radar's listing-based estimates for business jets of similar engine thrust and age. The Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve gives the shape of the forecast, and the range is widened to match. Not an appraisal.
