Engines, APU and maintenance
The engines are TFE731-4R-2S. The example listing shows both enrolled in Honeywell MSP Gold, with major periodic and overhaul inspections tracked per engine. Service bulletin TFE731-76-3065 (N1 DEEC) applies to this engine on the Citation VII, so check the engine log. The APU is a Garrett GTCP 36-150(W). Its original warranty ran 36 months or 2,000 APU hours, so confirm status.
Avionics and upgrades
The example 1995 aircraft has Honeywell SPZ-8000 with 5 displays, RVSM, TCAS 7.0 and TAWS. A Universal Avionics InSight glass-cockpit STC is available for the Citation VII. It costs $625,000 to $750,000, takes 8-12 weeks to install and adds 150 pounds. Pilots need training on the new system.
Cabin and what to check
The example aircraft has an eight-seat executive layout with a forward divan, a refreshment center and an aft belted lavatory. Its interior was refurbished in 2002 and it has had four owners since new. Compare total time, landings, engine inspection status, avionics and interior condition between aircraft.
Safety notes
- The broker advises an independent pre-purchase inspection. Listing specs are subject to verification on inspection.
- The DEEC protects the engine on takeoff, but the pilot report still advises checking the engine gauges.
- Training on any new avionics is required after an InSight installation.
