N377PL

This airframe, registered as N377PL, is a 2009-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 with serial number 525B0312. The aircraft is owned by TIDE ROCK TRAVEL LLC, a corporation based in Solana Beach, CA, US, which serves as its operator/home base. The airframe retains typical configuration and market valuation for its model year with an estimated current value of $5,500,000. Maintenance and condition highlights align with the Citation CJ3’s role as a light corporate transport; specific recent registry actions are not published in the supplied data.

The cabin for this airframe reflects the Citation CJ3’s typical 7–8 passenger executive layout, commonly arranged as a four-place club with forward and aft seats and an available belted lavatory option. Avionics equipment on typical CJ3 examples is the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite, which supports advanced flight management, navigation, and situational awareness for corporate and charter missions. Operationally the aircraft is suited to short-to-medium international missions and regional point-to-point transport, leveraging its 2,040 nm range and 416-knot cruise speed. Based in Solana Beach, California, the owner/operator profile suggests utilization for corporate travel and private charter missions within the western U.S. and to nearby international destinations. Maintenance considerations follow the CJ3’s service and inspection cycles for twin Williams FJ44 series engines and Pro Line 21 avionics upkeep.

The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 sits in the light business jet niche, positioned for operators seeking Pratt-quality ride and turbofan efficiency with a 45,000 ft ceiling and strong cruise performance. Competing models target similar missions, and buyer demand typically emphasizes low operating costs, dispatch reliability of the Williams FJ44-3A engines, and Pro Line 21-equipped avionics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2009 airframe align with market expectations for CJ3 examples: depreciation moderated by avionics and interior condition, and ongoing value retention driven by engine time, maintenance records, and platform popularity.
