Model & Market Context
This article covers the specific airframe bearing tail number N21TK, a 2001-built Cessna 525 CitationJet 1 with serial number 525-0131. The airframe is recorded as owned by the corporation MTK LEASING LLC, located in Woodburn, Oregon, United States; the registration is in the US. The airframe is registered under U.S. registry and has been associated with the single corporate owner listed in public records. Condition and valuation details beyond registry and configuration are not published.
The CitationJet 1 airframe configured as N21TK seats 8 and is typically employed in light business transport and short- to medium-range missions consistent with its 887 nm range and high-speed cruise of 381 kts. Cabin layout for this model generally accommodates a forward club and single aft seats or a six- to eight-place executive arrangement; no bespoke interior modifications specific to this airframe are published. Avionics fit is determined by factory and post-delivery upgrades common to Cessna 525s; specific avionics listings for N21TK are not published. Based in association with its owner in Woodburn, Oregon, the aircraft’s missions would commonly include regional charters, owner-operator corporate transport, and repositioning flights within U.S. markets, with routine maintenance requirements driven by twin Williams FJ44 turbofan support and regulatory inspections.
The Cessna 525 CitationJet 1 family occupies the light business jet niche, offering efficient short-field performance, low-hour operating economics for its class, and useful cruise speeds up to 381 kts with a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Competitors in this segment include other early-generation light jets powered by small high-bypass turbofans; buyers often prioritize acquisition cost, engine support, and avionics upgrades when assessing 2001 vintage airframes like serial 525-0131. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on Williams FJ44 support status, maintenance history, and any avionics or interior refurbishments, none of which are detailed in the available data.
