It is registered in the United States and currently owned by Cattlemen Logistics LLC, an LLC based in Minden, NE, US, which represents the principal operator and home base for this specific airframe.

As a late-production Gen2 model, the aircraft carries updated avionics and optional equipment lines that distinguish it within its production run.

The cabin of N308CM is outfitted in an executive 6–8 passenger layout featuring a belted aft lavatory and a forward side-facing seat; the Gen2 configuration on this airframe includes the optional folding side-facing seat for additional flexibility. Avionics fit is the Garmin G3000 (Gen2 with optional Garmin autothrottle), aligning cockpit automation and situational awareness with contemporary light-jet standards. Typical mission profiles for this airframe, consistent with its range and cruise, include short-to-medium regional corporate hops and on-demand charter missions originating from the owner/operator base in Minden, NE. Maintenance considerations reflect twin Williams FJ44 engines and Gen2 systems integration, with optional autothrottle an element for pilot training and operational procedures specific to this aircraft.

The Cessna 525 Citation M2 Gen2 occupies the light business jet performance niche, offering executive cabin utility, range suitable for many domestic missions, and high single-leg cruise speeds near 404 kts. Competing models in this segment typically present similar payload-range trade-offs; buyers and charter operators prioritize low-hour airframes with modern avionics such as the Garmin G3000 and optional autothrottle when assessing value. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe emphasize provenance (serial 525-1156) and documented ownership by Cattlemen Logistics LLC, factors that influence marketability and lifecycle support within secondary markets.
