N378AM

This entry documents airframe N378AM, a 2024-built Cessna Citation CJ4 (Model 525C0435) serial number 525C0435, manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna). The jet is registered in the United States and is owned by AERO MAQUILA INC, a corporation based in Del Rio, TX, US, reflecting a single-corporate ownership record without public record of prior operators. The airframe carries a contemporary avionics fit typical for the 525C / CJ4-series and is listed with an estimated market value of $11,850,000; condition highlights are not separately published.

The Type Certificate configuration for the CJ4-series supports a typical ten-seat executive layout, and this airframe is fitted with avionics consistent with the Collins Pro Line 21 suite commonly installed on Model 525C/CJ4 aircraft. Mission profiles for N378AM are expected to include regional and transregional business travel within its 2,165 nm range and at high-speed cruise near 451 kts, permitting non-stop city-pair flights across much of North America when payload and reserves are managed. Based in Del Rio, Texas, the corporate owner suggests usage oriented to private or charter operations from that home base; specific interior amenities or unique cabin modifications for this individual airframe are not published. Routine maintenance considerations align with twin Williams FJ44-4A engine programs and CJ4 structural/avionics maintenance intervals.

The Cessna Citation CJ4 (Model 525C) occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche within Textron’s Citation family, offering higher cruise speed and extended range relative to earlier CJ-series types. Performance data for N378AM—notably its 451 kts cruise and 45,000 ft ceiling—positions it competitively against contemporaries in the light jet segment, where buyers and charter operators prize speed, range, and cabin flexibility. Market and resale considerations for this 2024 airframe reflect a relatively young, low-calendar asset with modern avionics (Collins Pro Line 21) and Williams FJ44-4A engines, factors that typically support stronger demand and favorable maintenance cost projections in the pre-owned light jet market.
