N30LA

This airframe, registered as N30LA, is a 1993-built Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) carrying serial number 5250041. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by AEROKB LLC, a limited liability company based in Wilmington, Delaware. Operated in an executive configuration, this specific CJ1 has been documented with an eight-seat cabin layout and maintains the original twin-engine Williams powerplant installation. Registry entries and ownership records identify AEROKB LLC as the listed owner and operator base in Wilmington, DE.

The airframe is outfitted in an 8-seat executive configuration as reflected in the registry, making it suitable for short to mid-range corporate missions and on-demand charter operations. Typical mission profiles for this installation include point-to-point business travel within its 1,127 nm range at cruise speeds near 381 kt, operating from regional airports and corporate terminals. Avionics fit for this specific serial is not published here, but maintenance considerations focus on twin Williams FJ44 series engines rated at 1,900 lbf each and common to early CJ1 fleets. As an older-model airframe built in 1993, continued airworthiness relies on established inspection cycles, life-limited component tracking, and adherence to service bulletins relevant to the CJ1 series.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies the light business jet niche with efficient short-field performance and economical operating costs relative to larger-cabin jets. With a service ceiling of 41,000 ft and a cruise near 381 kt, the CJ1 competes with light jets such as early-model Learjets and the Beechjet/Hawker 400 series for owner-operators and charter operators seeking low-hour, point-to-point capability. For this particular airframe, buyer and operator considerations include airframe age (1993 build), serial-specific maintenance history, parts availability for Williams FJ44-powered CJ1s, and resale considerations tied to cabin configuration and cumulative maintenance status.
