Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing registration N1127K is a 1998-built Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1), serial number 525-0293, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned as an individual asset by Charles Hutter, based in Carson City, NV, US. Public records for this specific airframe do not provide detailed registry action history beyond its current registration, and valuation or condition assessments for this serial are not published. The combination of its build year and single private ownership suggests it has been operated in non-commercial, owner-flown or owner-managed roles consistent with light business-jet use.

The aircraft's eight-seat configuration reflects the typical CJ1 interior layout optimized for short- to medium-haul executive transport, accommodating a pilot and small passenger complement for business or personal missions. With a maximum cruise speed of 404 kts and a 1,550 nm range, the airframe is suited to regional point-to-point missions such as West Coast or intermountain hops from its Carson City location. While specific avionics fit and cabin amenities for this serial are not published, the CJ1 baseline supports familiar light-jet systems and modest galley or refreshment configurations; owner-operated maintenance programs and standard Williams FJ44 engine support arrangements would govern operational reliability and maintenance cycles for this airframe.

As a member of the Cessna Citation family, the Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies the light business jet niche, offering relatively high cruise speed and single-pilot capability for owner-operators. With twin Williams International FJ44-1AP engines producing 1,965 lbf each, the model competes with light jets that prioritize operating economy and runway performance. Typical buyer and charter demand centers on owners seeking efficient regional capability; resale and maintenance considerations for this 1998-built airframe will hinge on logbooks, engine cycles, and avionics updates specific to serial 525-0293.
