Model & Market Context

The airframe registered as N123CZ is a 2009-built Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3, serial 525B0313, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is owned by OKAY INC TRUSTEE, a corporate owner based in Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe is broadly representative of late-2000s CJ3 builds; valuation is approximately $5,000,000, reflecting typical market positioning for well-maintained CitationJet CJ3 examples of this vintage.

The cabin of N123CZ follows the typical executive CJ3 fit: a 2‑crew plus 6–8 passenger executive layout featuring a club four arrangement, forward and rear single seats, and provision for an optional belted lavatory. The installed avionics fit is the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21, the common factory fit for CJ3s (with CJ3+ and later variants offering G3000 upgrades). Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short to mid-range executive transport and charter work within the continental United States, leveraging the CJ3’s combination of regional speed and transcontinental range for point-to-point corporate movements. Ownership by a Wilmington, Delaware trustee corporation suggests corporate or trust-managed operations and standard U.S. maintenance oversight and registry requirements.

The Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3 occupies the light-cabin, light-jet performance niche, offering a balance of single-pilot capability (where certificated) and compact executive comfort for 6–8 passengers over ranges up to about 2,070 nm at cruise speeds near 416 kts. Competing models in the segment include light jets from Embraer and Dassault Falcon’s smaller types, and market demand typically centers on owner-operators and charter fleets seeking low-hour, efficient light-cabin jets. Maintenance and resale considerations for a 2009 CJ3 such as N123CZ hinge on engine and avionics upgrade history (notably Pro Line 21 versus G3000 upgrades), recorded maintenance status, and total time since manufacture, all factors that influence lifecycle and market value.
