Model & Market Context

This entry covers the airframe registered as N11AK, a Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 built by Cessna (Textron Aviation) bearing serial number 525C0236. Build year and a complete public ownership timeline are not published for this specific registration; available records do not list a documented transfer history or valuation highlights. The aircraft’s operator and home base are not published in the supplied data set. No notable registry actions have been published for this serial in the provided material, and condition or recent refurbishment status is likewise not published.

The airframe is equipped in the standard CJ4 executive configuration: an executive club seating arrangement configured for a typical 6–8 place layout with an enclosed aft lavatory and an integral refreshment center. Avionics fit for the 525C CJ4 type is listed as Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 in typical factory specification, with the note that Gen2/Gen3 aircraft of this series may be retrofitted with Garmin G3000 suites; the specific retrofit status for N11AK is not published. Typical missions for a CJ4 of this capability include high-speed regional business travel and light charter operations across ranges up to 2,165 nm, operating from corporate bases or fixed-base operators; the specific operator base for this airframe is not published. Maintenance considerations mirror those common to Williams FJ44-powered light jets, emphasizing engine hot-section inspections and avionics cyclic upgrades.

The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies the light-cabin, long-range end of the light-jet market, offering cruise speeds around 451 kts and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, which makes it competitive for cross-country business missions. Direct competitors include light-to-mid-size jets offering similar range and speed; buyer demand historically favors well-equipped CJ4s with modern avionics retrofits. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe will hinge on engine hours on the dual Williams FJ44-4A, records of avionics upgrades (Pro Line 21 versus Garmin G3000), and the completeness of logbooks for 525C0236.
