N209AM

This entry covers airframe N209AM, a 2007-built Cessna 525A-0365 Citation CJ2+ serial 525A-0365. The jet is manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and is registered in the US to the corporate owner APPLE AUTOS GROUP INC, based in Apple Valley, MN, US. The airframe has been operated under corporate ownership and listed with a market valuation of $3,500,000. Registry and valuation data indicate a standard business-jet ownership arrangement with the aircraft maintained in active commercial/corporate service.

The aircraft is outfitted in a center-club main cabin with a belted lavatory in a typical six-place executive layout while being listed with a maximum passenger capacity of 8, reflecting flexible short-haul corporate transport roles. Avionics are reported as Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 with Pro Line 21 CNS and Collins FMS-3000, supporting contemporary navigation and flight-management needs for company operations. Based in Apple Valley, MN, US under corporate ownership, the CJ2+ airframe is suitable for regional business missions and point-to-point trips within its 1,781 nm range and cruise of 418 kts, serving executive transport, light charter, or owner-operator duties. Maintenance considerations follow Williams FJ44-series engine programs and Pro Line avionics support, typical for this airframe class.

The Cessna 525A Citation CJ2+ occupies a light, twin-engine business-jet niche emphasizing short to mid-range speed and efficiency. With a service ceiling of 45,000 ft and twin Williams FJ44-3A-24 engines producing 2,490 lbf each, the platform competes with other light jets in demand for owner/operators and small corporate flight departments. Market valuation at $3,500,000 reflects the airframe’s age, configuration, and avionics fit; resale and maintenance considerations typically center on engine cycles, Pro Line 21 avionics condition, and interior refurbishment when aligned with corporate use.
