Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N327TX, is a 2008-built Cessna 525B CitationJet 3 bearing serial number 525B0227. The aircraft is owned by LUCKY DEVIL LLC, a limited liability company based in Scottsdale, AZ, US, and is operated under a United States registration. The registry reflects standard private ownership; no public record of recent notable registry actions or changes in operator has been provided. Public valuation or detailed condition reports for this specific airframe are not published.
N327TX is outfitted in a typical executive configuration for the Citation CJ3 airframe, featuring a 6–8 place club seating arrangement and an enclosed belted lavatory, with approximately 65 cu ft of baggage capacity. The avionics fit commonly installed on 525B CJ3 airframes is the Collins Pro Line 21 suite, which supports conventional business-jet navigation, communications and integrated systems management in the cockpit. Typical missions for this airframe profile include short- to medium-haul executive transport and private charter trips within the continental United States, leveraging the aircraft’s cruise speed of 416 knots and a range of 2,040 nautical miles. Based in Scottsdale, AZ, operator considerations include desert climatic effects on avionics and environmental control systems and the usual calendar- and-hour-based maintenance schedules for Williams FJ44-series turbines.
The Cessna 525B CitationJet 3 (Citation CJ3) occupies the light business-jet niche, offering transcontinental short-haul capability with efficient Williams FJ44 propulsion and a high single-flight ceiling of 45,000 ft. Its competitive set includes other light-cabin jets that prioritize low operating costs and runway performance; demand among owner-operators and charter operators remains steady for well-maintained CJ3s. Maintenance considerations center on lifecycle management of the FJ44-3A engines and avionics updates—owners often retain the Collins Pro Line 21 or modernize systems when pursuing higher resale value. Resale and charter appeal for a 2008 CJ3 like N327TX depend heavily on logbook completeness, refurbishment state of the executive cabin, and compliance with routine inspections.
