N304TC

This entry describes airframe N304TC, a 2015-built Cessna Citation CJ3+ (Model 525B0478) manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. The aircraft serial number is 525B0478 and it is registered in the United States as N304TC; its documented owner is CANYONS AVIATION GROUP LLC, a corporation based in Orlando, FL, US. The airframe is a Model 525B CJ3+ equipped and operated in a corporate/charter configuration, with current market valuation noted at $8,500,000. No additional registry actions or prior owners are published beyond the present corporate ownership.

The cabin of N304TC is fitted with six pedestal seats in a center‑club arrangement, supplemented by a right‑hand forward side‑facing seat and an aft belted flushing lavatory, providing an eight‑place interior tailored for short to mid‑size corporate missions. Forward of the cabin is a refreshment center and storage cabinet supporting typical executive service; the galley and lavatory arrangement emphasize passenger comfort on routes within the aircraft’s 2,040 nm range. Avionics on this airframe consist of a Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck with dual VHF, dual Nav, dual Mode S diversity transponders and ADS‑B Out, supplemented by a GWX-70 weather radar and a Garmin GTS-8000 TCAS II. Typical operations for this CJ3+ include owner/operator corporate transport and on-demand charter missions based from its Orlando, Florida home base, with maintenance considerations consistent with Williams FJ44 engine support and Garmin G3000 avionics lifecycle management.

The Cessna Citation CJ3+ (Model 525B) occupies the light business jet niche offering transcontinental short‑haul capability with high cruise speed and a 45,000 ft service ceiling. Competing models in the segment include Embraer Phenom 300 variants and other Citation family members; the CJ3+ trades slightly higher cruise and proven avionics integration for modest cabin size compared with larger midsize types. Buyers and charter operators value this airframe for its combination of the Garmin G3000 suite, reliable Williams FJ44 powerplants, and the aircraft’s resale profile, with maintenance and part support often driven by engine shop visit cycles and avionics upgrades over time.
