N383CJ

The airframe bearing registration N383CJ is a 2012-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 with serial number 525B-0383. The aircraft is registered in the US, and public records note a reported connectivity fit on this specific airframe. Its market valuation is listed at $8,475,000, reflecting condition and equipment common to late-production CJ3 examples. Reported avionics and connectivity upgrades have been recorded on the registry for this airframe, but no further public owner/operator lineage is published here.

The cabin on this airframe follows the typical executive arrangement for the type: a forward refreshment center and a club-style 2+4/6-place seating layout, with an aft belted lavatory or belted potty seat depending on interior fit. Avionics reported for this airframe include the common-fit Collins Pro Line 21 with dealer-upgrade options noted; Gogo Avance L3 connectivity has been reported on this airframe. Typical mission profiles for a CJ3 of this configuration encompass short- to mid-range executive transport and on-demand charter missions within its 2,040 nm range and high-speed cruise capability. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would reflect the twin Williams FJ44-3A engines and the avionics configuration when assessing inspection cycles and upgrade paths.

The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 occupies the fixed-wing light jet niche, offering a balance of runway performance, single-pilot certification potential, and transcontinental regional capability within its class. Competing models typically include other light-cabin jets that target owner-operators and charter operators seeking efficient speed and elevated cruise ceilings; this airframe’s 45,000 ft ceiling and 416 kts cruise underscore that capability. Buyer and charter demand for CJ3 airframes often hinges on avionics fit and connectivity options—factors directly noted for this aircraft—while maintenance and resale considerations will weigh engine hours, Pro Line 21 commonality, and any dealer upgrades or installed connectivity equipment.
