Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing registration N3EW is a 2006-build Cessna 525B Citation CJ3, serial number 525B0085, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). It is registered in the United States and owned by JC2 LLC, a corporation based in Orange Beach, AL, US, which serves as the aircraft's operator/home base for recorded movements. The federal registry lists an 8-place executive seating count consistent with its configured cabin, and the airframe carries an estimated market value of $4,295,000. No further public records of notable modifications or major registry actions are published for this specific airframe.

This airframe is documented with an 8-place executive layout per the registry seating count, indicating a typical business-jet interior optimized for passenger comfort on short- to medium-haul missions. Specifics of the avionics fit and interior appointments are not published in the supplied data; however, the Citation CJ3 airframe class is commonly used for point-to-point corporate travel, air taxi, and owner-flown missions consistent with the eight-seat configuration. Based at Orange Beach, AL under ownership by JC2 LLC, operational profiles would typically include regional coastal and interstate hops within the CJ3’s 2,040 nm range and transcontinental segments within performance limits. Maintenance considerations for this particular airframe focus on two-wing-mounted Williams FJ44-3A engines, each rated at 2,820 lbf, with typical inspections and component support paths aligned to Textron/Cessna maintenance programs.

The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 occupies a light-cabin, long-range light-jet niche within Textron’s Citation family, offering a balance of cruise speed (416 kts) and a high operational ceiling (45,000 ft) for efficient regional and operator-flexible missions. Competing models in the class include later-model light-cabin jets that offer similar ranges and passenger counts; buyers and charter operators value the CJ3 for its operating economics and established support network. For this 2006 airframe (serial 525B0085), resale and maintenance considerations center on engine cycles and avionics currency, with market valuation indicated at $4,295,000 in the supplied data.
