N300BV

The airframe bearing tail number N300BV is a 2001-built Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1, serial 525-0418, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by the Mississippi-based corporation CJ BRAVO VICTOR LLC of Ridgeland, MS, US, which appears as the on-record operator for this airframe. Acquisition by CJ BRAVO VICTOR LLC is the primary documented ownership event associated with this serial; no other prior operators or transfers are published in the supplied data. The airframe is categorized as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet and carries an estimated market value of $1,500,000, reflecting age, configuration, and the CJ1’s position in the pre-owned light-jet sector.

The airframe is configured with 8 seats, consistent with typical light-cabin layouts for short- to medium-range executive transport; specific internal floorplan variations for this serial are not published. In operational terms the aircraft’s profile suits regional point-to-point missions within a roughly 1,550 nm radius at an economical cruise near 389 kts and with a service ceiling up to 41,000 ft. Based in Ridgeland, MS under CJ BRAVO VICTOR LLC, typical missions would include owner/operator business travel, short-haul charter or corporate positioning flights. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow Williams FJ44-1A engine service regimes and Citation CJ1 airframe inspection cycles; specific avionics fit and unique cabin amenities for this serial are not published.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 family occupies the light jet niche, providing efficient short- to medium-range performance for owner/operators and small charter operators. With twin Williams FJ44-1A engines delivering about 1,965 lbf each, the type is competitive against other early-2000s entry-level business jets in operating costs and runway flexibility. In resale market terms, a 2001 airframe valued at $1,500,000 reflects depreciation typical for early CJ1s and factors in hours, maintenance history, and avionics standards; buyer demand tends to favor well-documented examples with updated avionics and current maintenance status.
