Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N252RV, is a 1998-built Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) with serial number 5250252. The aircraft is owned by HSSJ LLC, an LLC based in Chattanooga, TN, US, and is registered in the US. The registry lists an 8-seat executive layout; the airframe’s condition and market valuation are reported at $2,000,000. No additional publicized ownership changes or notable registry actions are recorded in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific CitationJet is configured in an 8-seat executive layout, as noted in the registry, supporting small-group corporate or personal transport missions. Operated from the owner’s base in Chattanooga, TN, US, the aircraft’s performance—combining a cruise of 365 kts and a range of 1,485 nm—suits short- to mid-range point-to-point executive flights and regional hops. Given the twin Williams FJ44 series engines producing 1,900 lbf each, operational considerations for this airframe would focus on typical light-jet maintenance cycles and engine-support logistics appropriate to the CJ1 platform. The reported valuation of $2,000,000 frames its resale and insurance positioning relative to fleet age and configuration.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies the light‑jet niche within Textron Aviation’s Citation family, offering relatively high cruise speeds and efficient short‑haul performance for owner/operators and charter operators. With a certified ceiling of 41,000 ft and an eight‑seat executive layout, demand typically comes from private owners and on‑demand charter operators seeking economical regional capability. Competing models in the same market segment often include other early-generation light jets; resale considerations for this 1998 airframe center on total time, maintenance history, and avionics modernization, with the stated market value of $2,000,000 reflecting those influencing factors.
