N300FC

The airframe bearing registration N300FC is a 1998 build of the Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1, serial number 525-0248. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by DRESDEN AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Atlanta, GA. Registered to DRESDEN AVIATION LLC as the current owner; no public record of prior operators is published in the supplied data. The listed market valuation for this specific airframe is $1,500,000, and registry entries identify it as a fixed-wing multi-engine executive transport configured for up to eight passengers.

The cabin of this CJ1 is fitted in a typical executive layout: a four-place center club, a forward right-hand side-facing belted seat, a forward refreshment center, and a belted/flushing aft lavatory, with eight passenger seating listed. Avionics are noted as the OEM typical Collins Pro Line series, though third-party sources indicate some CJ1 airframes have received Garmin G1000 retrofits; airframe-specific retrofit documentation for this registration is not publicly documented in the supplied data. Typical missions for this model and configuration include short- to mid-range business travel and light charter operations out of its Atlanta base, with operations benefiting from the CJ1’s higher cruise speed and access to smaller airports. Maintenance considerations follow light-jet multi-engine norms, with emphasis on the FJ44 engine program and avionics upgrade paths.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 occupies the light-jet niche, offering efficient point-to-point speed and modest operating costs for an eight-seat executive layout. Competing models historically include other light-cabin jets from the late 1990s and early 2000s; buyer and charter demand tends to focus on airframes with modern avionics and well-documented maintenance histories. For this specific airframe, resale considerations hinge on total time, engine status and any avionics retrofits, with the stated $1,500,000 valuation reflecting age, configuration and market conditions for late-1990s CJ1s.
