Model & Market Context

This entry covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N1277E, a 2002-built Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2 with manufacturer's serial number 525A0076. The aircraft is owned by HEAVEN EXPRESS LLC, an LLC based in Corralitos, CA, US, and is registered in the US. Notable registry details include its US registration and its market valuation, currently assessed at $2,500,000. The airframe's condition and operational availability are reflected in its configuration as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet in active civilian ownership.

The CitationJet CJ2 airframe N1277E is configured for an eight-seat passenger layout consistent with light business jet missions and short to medium-haul executive transport. Avionics fit and specific cabin appointments for this serial are not published beyond model-standard configurations, but the aircraft's range of 1,781 nm and cruise speed of 410 kts indicate suitability for point-to-point corporate travel and on-demand charter operations. Based in Corralitos, CA, US under ownership of HEAVEN EXPRESS LLC, the aircraft would typically be employed on regional routes along the west coast and inland corridors where its ceiling of 45,000 ft and twin Williams FJ44-2C powerplants support efficient climb and cruise performance. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow the CitationJet CJ2 type practices, with attention to Williams FJ44-series engine support and airframe avionics lifecycle.

The Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2 occupies the light business jet niche, offering a balance of speed, single-aisle cabin seating for 8, and a transregional range of 1,781 nm. Competing models in its class typically include other light jets that trade off cabin size versus operating economics; buyers and charter operators value the CJ2 for its cruise of 410 kts and high-altitude capability to 45,000 ft. From a resale and maintenance perspective, this airframe’s 2002 build year and serial 525A0076 mean operators must weigh mid-life maintenance events against the recorded valuation of $2,500,000, and engine support for the FJ44 series remains a primary lifecycle cost driver.
