Model & Market Context

This entry covers airframe N33FW, a 1997-built Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 with serial number 525-0203. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by NEXT LEVEL AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Sarasota, FL, US, which serves as the operator/home base for the type. The airframe’s manufacture by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and its production vintage are reflected in its configuration and typical retrofit options; its last assessed market value is $1,869,915, a figure that provides context for condition and market positioning. No other public registry actions are noted in the supplied data.

The cabin of this particular CJ1 is configured to accommodate 8 passengers in a light business-jet layout common to early CitationJet interiors; seating and cabin systems are configured for short- to mid-range corporate missions within a 1,248 nm ferry or mission radius. Avionics for this airframe are listed as Collins Pro Line 21, which is either a stock fit or a typical retrofit for the CJ1 series and supports operator requirements for regional charter, owner-flown business travel, and single-leg cross-country hops. Operating from Sarasota, FL, the owner-operator profile suggests usage on Florida–southeast U.S. sectors and leisure/corporate repositioning flights; maintenance considerations reflect the twin Williams FJ44-1A turbofan engines and the airframe’s late-1990s build year. No specific cabin refurbishment history was provided.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 occupies the light jet performance niche with moderate cruise speed (324 kts) and high-altitude capability (41,000 ft) for its class, driven by twin Williams FJ44-1A engines. Competitors in this category typically include other late-1990s light jets; resale value and buyer demand for an airframe like N33FW are influenced by total time, avionics standardization such as the Collins Pro Line 21, and the documented owner/operator status with NEXT LEVEL AVIATION LLC. Maintenance and resale considerations center on engine support for the FJ44 series and the airframe’s 1997 production vintage, which together inform marketability at the listed value.
