N318JP

This entry covers airframe N318JP, a 2024-built Cessna 525 Citation M2 with manufacturer's serial number 525-1174, built by Textron Aviation Inc. The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by Surric LLC, a corporation based in Shreveport, LA, US; the current registration and ownership records indicate the airframe entered the operator's control upon completion in 2024. The jet carries a contemporary avionics fit and an executive cabin layout consistent with late-model Citation M2 deliveries, and market valuation records list the airframe at $4,500,000 in current condition estimates.

The specific cabin of N318JP is configured in a 5–6 place executive layout with a belted lavatory, offering flexible seating for business travel and light corporate transport. Avionics aboard this airframe consist of the Garmin G3000 flightdeck, enabling modern situational awareness, integrated flight management and single-pilot capability common to this category. Operated from Shreveport, LA, under ownership of Surric LLC, the aircraft is suited to regional point-to-point missions within its 1,300 nm range and high-speed cruise capability of 404 kts, frequently serving short- to medium-haul business trips and charter work while maintaining efficient operating costs for its class. Maintenance considerations align with twin Williams FJ44 series turbofan norms and Textron-supported service networks.

The Cessna 525 Citation M2 occupies the light bizjet niche, offering owner-operators and small charter firms a balance of cabin comfort, performance to 41,000 ft, and lower acquisition cost relative to larger light jets. Competing models target similar missions and include other entry-level light jets with modern avionics suites; resale and maintenance considerations for N318JP reflect the desirability of a 2024 airframe with Garmin G3000 and Williams FJ44 powerplants, contributing to sustained buyer interest in secondary markets and charter fleets.
