N265BF

This airframe, registered as N265BF, is a 2012-built example of the Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 with serial number 525C-0094. The aircraft was manufactured by Textron Aviation (Cessna) and carries US registration; detailed public records of an ownership timeline, operator or home base, and notable registry actions are not published for this specific serial in the supplied data. Valuation information supplied for this airframe places its market value at $6,600,000, reflecting a well-equipped late-model light business jet in established global secondary markets. Reported equipment and configuration details suggest the airplane has seen executive passenger use rather than frequent high-utilization charter work.

The cabin of this specific CJ4 is fitted in a typical 8–10-place executive layout: a forward divan, a four-place club configuration, and two forward-facing chairs, accompanied by a forward galley and aft baggage compartment, matching corporate interior standards for short- to mid‑range missions. Avionics for this airframe are reported as an upgrade to Garmin G1000, although Collins Pro Line 21 installations are common on CJ4s; the dual-configuration note indicates potential modernization of cockpit systems for improved situational awareness and avionics support. With a maximum cruise near 451 kts and a range of 2,165 nm, typical operations would include domestic and trans‑regional business missions, point-to-point executive transport, and light cargo or medevac configurations if re‑purposed. Maintenance considerations reflect standard CJ4 practices for Williams FJ44 family engines and systems-level support from Textron-authorized service centers.

The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies the light-cabin/entry-mid-size sector of business jets, offering jet speeds and ranges that bridge turboprops and larger small-cabin jets. With twin Williams FJ44-4A engines producing about 3,621 lbf each, the type competes with models such as the Embraer Phenom 300 and Learjet-class jets for owner-operators and charter brokers seeking high cruise speed and respectable range. Demand in the preowned market favors well-documented maintenance histories and avionics upgrades—attributes implied by the reported Garmin G1000 upgrade—and resale pricing near the stated $6.6M will depend on total time, inspections, and installed options. Maintenance and parts support benefit from Textron's global network, though engine overhaul and avionics upgrade cycles are primary cost drivers for ownership economics.
