N303KM

This specific airframe, registered as N303KM, is a 2000-built Cessna 525 Citation CJ1 (CitationJet 1) with serial number 525-0180. Manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation), the airframe is recorded as owned by COASTAL RENTALS LLC of Allen, KY and is registered in the US. The aircraft’s paperwork reflects a single identifiable owner entry in the supplied data; current owner recorded as COASTAL RENTALS LLC in Allen, KY. No further historic leasing or operator transitions are indicated in the available dataset.

The airframe is configured in an 8-place executive layout with a stand-up cabin approximately 11 ft long, suitable for short to mid-range executive transport and on-demand charter legs. Typical avionics fit for CJ1-era installations is the Collins Pro Line 21, providing modern navigation, flight management and autopilot capabilities appropriate to business-jet single-pilot or two-pilot operations of its era. With a ferry range near 1,550 nm and cruise speeds around 381 kts, missions commonly include regional point-to-point segments, corporate travel and light air-taxi work from a home base in Allen, KY or nearby regional airports. Maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on Williams FJ44 hot-section and accessory inspections in line with manufacturer schedules and keeping CJ1-era Pro Line 21 avionics current through software and database updates.

The Cessna 525 Citation CJ1 occupies the light-cabin, light-jet niche—offering low operating costs, runway performance and simple systems relative to larger citations. Competing types in the entry-level light-jet market emphasize similar single-pilot capability and short-field performance. Demand historically centers on owner-operators, small charter companies and corporate fleets seeking economical regional speed and altitude capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on FJ44 engine service history, avionics configuration (Pro Line 21 remains supportable but may require upgrades), and the overall logbook and corrosion/structural status for a 2000-build aircraft.
