N10AU

This airframe, registered as N10AU, is a 2016 build of the Cessna 525C CitationJet CJ4 with manufacturer serial number 525C0210. The aircraft is owned and operated by AUBURN UNIVERSITY and is registered in the US, with the owner based in Auburn, AL. As a university-operated asset, the jet is maintained for institutional transport roles and carries an estimated market valuation of $7,500,000. The airframe’s build year, serial, and institutional ownership define its operational record and utilization profile within a governmental education operator context.

The aircraft is configured with a typical 6–8 place executive layout while being certified to carry up to 10 occupants, making it suitable for institutional group transport and executive missions. Cabin dimensions include a 17.4 ft cabin length, 58 in width, and 57 in height, with 77 cu ft of baggage capacity, supporting short-to-medium duration flights with reasonable passenger comfort and luggage capacity. The avionics suite fitted in typical CJ4s is the Collins Pro Line 21, providing integrated flight management, navigation, and situational awareness capabilities useful for university flight operations. Given its twin Williams FJ44-4A engines and a cruise speed of 451 kts, the airframe supports efficient regional and transcontinental point-to-point missions within its 2,165 nm range, and its 45,000 ft service ceiling allows for optimized enroute performance and weather avoidance.

As a member of the CitationJet CJ4 line, this airframe occupies the light business jet category characterized by high cruise speeds, transregional range, and a ten-seat certification that appeals to institutional and corporate buyers. With a market value around $7,500,000, demand is typically driven by operators needing fast, efficient shuttle capability for groups up to the certified occupant limit. Maintenance considerations center on twin Williams FJ44 series support and avionics lifecycle for the Collins Pro Line 21 fit; resale and operational economics for this airframe reflect its 2016 build, cruise/range performance, and institutional ownership profile.
