Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N33NM, is a 1993-built Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) with serial number 5250025. The airplane was manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and is owned by the corporation BIGHORN AIRWAYS INC, based in Sheridan, WY, US; the registration is under the US registry. The airframe remains associated with its corporate owner in Sheridan with no public record of subsequent ownership transfers provided. The aircraft is valued at $1,400,000, a figure reflecting its age, configuration, and market position among early CitationJet series jets.

The configured seating for 8 places this CitationJet CJ1 airframe in the light business-jet category, typically arranged in a compact executive cabin suitable for short to mid-range corporate missions. Avionics fit for this specific serial is not published beyond the model-standard equipment, but CJ1 airframes commonly feature basic corporate avionics suites appropriate for single-pilot or two-pilot IFR operation. Typical missions flown by the owner-operator out of Sheridan, WY would include regional charters, company transport, and point-to-point business travel within the aircraft’s 1,550 nm range and at cruise speeds near 380 kts. Maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on age-related inspections and engine support for the Williams FJ44-1A units, and operational basing in Wyoming can dictate specific environmental and seasonal upkeep.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies a performance niche as an entry-level light business jet, offering a balance of low operating costs, modest cabin comfort, and good runway performance. Competing models typically include early Learjet and Beechjet variants in the light-jet segment. With a service ceiling of 41,000 ft and transregional range, buyer and charter demand for early-1990s CJ1s centers on price-conscious buyers seeking efficient short-haul capability; the listed value of $1,400,000 reflects depreciation and required ongoing maintenance. Resale considerations emphasize engine hours on the Williams FJ44-1A, complete maintenance logs, and any avionics upgrades to maintain charter or corporate utility.
