Its busiest month was May 2026, with 16 flights.

Its busiest month was May 2026, with 16 flights. It did not fly in September 2025. The record has 42 tracking gaps, so about one flight in 1 may be missing and every count is a minimum.

Chapter 01

Fatigue

Harsher than the type

What each landing and pressurization cycle costs the structure: landings per hour and short hops.

Utilization isn’t graded for N224JV: too few of its flights were tracked to count its use fairly, in the full report too. So its free chapter here is Fatigue, which doesn’t depend on catching every flight.

More landings for its hours. Harsher on fatigue.

Short legs put more pressurization cycles on the structure for the same time in the air. Worth checking its cycle-based inspection limits before a pre-buy.

Hours per landingHarsher
0.8 : 1

Against 1.4 : 1 for the middle Citation Latitude (1st). More landings for its hours.

N224JV’s flying is spread across many routes. Its most-flown pair of airports carries 11% of flights, 7 of 61, counting both directions. Its top three pairs make up 26%, so about seven flights in ten go somewhere else. None of its tracked flights crossed a border.

Chapters 02–04

Corrosion, engines and brakes, and utilization

02 Corrosion

Not graded: not enough data

Where does it spend its nights? Where a jet sleeps shapes how fast it corrodes. Salt and damp overnight are what an inspector looks at first.

Salt air Lead metric

In the report

Also graded: damp air, freeze–thaw, near the coast and moisture in the air. See this chapter in the sample report →

03 Engines and brakes

Outside the middle of the fleet

How hard were its airfields? Short, hot and high runways ask for more thrust on every takeoff and harder braking on every landing. That wear doesn’t show in the hours.

Short runways Lead metric
Departures where the longest runway was under 1.25× the takeoff distance

Also graded: hot, high takeoffs; density altitude; dust and dry climate. See this chapter in the sample report →

04 Utilization

Not graded: too few of its flights were tracked

How hard has it been used? Heavy use spends maintenance intervals faster; long spells parked bring their own wear. Both are worth knowing before a pre-buy.

Questions

About N224JV

How many hours does N224JV fly a year?

About 52 estimated hours in the 12 months to 31 Jul 2026, across 61 tracked flights. Hours are estimated from time in the air, so the logbook has the exact figure.

How often is N224JV flown?

N224JV made 61 tracked flights in the 12 months to 31 Jul 2026, about 5 a month, and flew on about 4 days in each month it flew.

When did N224JV last fly?

It was last tracked in July 2026. We publish an aircraft’s flights seven days after they happen, and show them by month only.

Why don’t you show which airports N224JV uses?

We leave out airports, bases and exact dates on purpose. We show how an aircraft has been used, not where it goes.

What’s in the full TailCheck report for N224JV?

All four graded chapters (Fatigue, Corrosion, Engines and brakes, and Utilization), each against the tracked Citation Latitudes, plus the operational summary and operating rhythm, as a PDF, CSV and share link. It costs $395, or $995 a month for unlimited reports and Spotlight.

Method

How this page is made

Everything here comes from N224JV’s ADS-B track, the position signal aircraft broadcast, over the 12 months to 31 Jul 2026. ADS-B misses some flights, so every count is a minimum. Flights appear seven days after they happen, by month only, and hours are estimated from time in the air; the logbook has the real totals. Airports, bases and exact dates are left out on purpose. How grades work: each graded measure is placed among the tracked Citation Latitudes against the middle aircraft, the 50th percentile. Between the 25th and 75th it is typical; outside that band it is gentler or harsher. Fatigue is graded here for free; for the other chapters this page shows the middle value of the fleet and whether this aircraft sits inside the middle half or outside it. Their grades and values are in the report, not on this page. Owners and operators can ask us not to publish an aircraft’s activity.
