The Cessna Citation II was the first of the Model 550 series of Citation jets, which are light corporate jet built by Cessna. A direct development of the Citation I, the Citation II led to the later development of the Citation II/SP, the S550 Citation S/II, and the Citation Bravo. In October, 1983, Cessna announced plans for an updated model of the Citation II, and on February 14, 1984, the Model S550 Citation S/II had its first test flight. The aircraft utilized an improved version of the JT15D-4B engine with 2,500 pounds of thrust at higher altitudes. Updates from the Citation II include increased fuel capacity to 5820 lbs, and TKS fluid de-icing on the leading edges. Its cabin volume is 263 cubic feet, seating up to nine passengers and two crew members. The baggage compartment can hold up to eleven bags of less than five cubic feet. In 1997, the Citation S/II was discontinued, with approximately 160 of them delivered.
