N302CJ

This airframe, registered as N302CJ, is a 2006-built Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2+ with manufacturer serial 525A0302. Owned by N302CJ LLC (an LLC based in Springfield, MO, US), the jet is recorded on the US civil aircraft registry and operated from that regional base. The airframe is powered by two turbofan engines and is commonly deployed in light business-jet roles; its most recent market valuation is $3,500,000, indicating a serviceable example consistent with mid-2000s CJ2+ condition and equipment. No other specific registry actions or prior ownership transfers are published beyond the current LLC ownership and US registration.

The cabin on this CJ2+ is fitted in a typical executive layout for 6–8 passengers, featuring forward club seating and either a belted lavatory or a refreshment center depending on the specific interior fit of this airframe. Avionics fit for CJ2+ examples commonly includes the Collins Pro Line 21, which aligns with the airframe’s profile for single-pilot capable, short-to-medium-haul business missions. With a range of 1,613 nm and cruise near 413 kts, typical routes for the aircraft include regional city pairs and on-demand charter missions from its Springfield, Missouri base. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow the CJ2+ program norms, driven by engine cycles on the Williams FJ44-3A-24 powerplants and avionics support for Pro Line 21-equipped examples.

The Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2+ occupies the light business-jet niche, offering trans-regional capability, efficient Williams FJ44 series propulsion, and a high useful ceiling of 45,000 ft for favorable flight levels. Competing models in its era include light jets from other manufacturers targeting short to medium-range point-to-point executive transport; buyers often value the CJ2+ for its operating economics and single-pilot capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2006 serial 525A0302 center on engine time, Pro Line 21 avionics condition, and interior refurbishment needs affecting its $3,500,000 valuation.
