N1022G

This article covers the individual airframe N1022G, a 2017-built light business jet of serial number 525-0974. The aircraft was manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc (Cessna) as a Cessna Citation M2 (Model 525) and is registered in the United States. The airframe is owned by WELCOME GROVE LLC, an LLC based in West Sacramento, CA, US, and is recorded in civil registry data with typical operator/home-base activity tied to that ownership. Valuation and condition highlights for this specific airframe list a market value of $3,950,000, reflecting a late-2010s M2 in executive configuration.

The configured cabin for N1022G is an 8-place executive layout consistent with a center club arrangement typical for Model 525/M2 airframes; similar serials report a forward side-facing seat and an aft lavatory, which is reflected in this aircraft’s outfitting. Avionics are fitted in the conventional M2 standard with a Garmin G3000 integrated flightdeck, supporting modern situational awareness and single-pilot operation capabilities. Typical missions for this airframe include short to medium-range corporate and charter hops within a roughly 1,550 nm radius and high-speed point-to-point travel at cruise speeds near 404 kts, often operating out of the owner’s West Sacramento area base. Maintenance considerations align with light-jet schedules for Williams FJ44 family engines and Garmin-equipped cockpits, where adherence to time-between-overhaul cycles and avionics software currency are important for operational readiness.

The Cessna Citation M2 (Model 525) occupies the light business jet niche, offering operator-friendly single-pilot certification, efficient Williams FJ44 powerplants, and a combination of speed and range that suits regional corporate missions. Competitors in this segment include other entry-level jets offering similar seating and performance; resale value for a 2017 M2 such as N1022G is anchored by its avionics fit and low-cycle engine pedigree, contributing to the listed $3,950,000 valuation. Buyer and charter demand typically favors well-documented maintenance histories and Garmin-equipped cockpits, so continuity of ownership and recorded registry actions for WELCOME GROVE LLC are relevant to future marketability and maintenance planning.
