N3JS

This entry covers airframe N3JS, a 2020-built Cessna 525 Citation M2 with serial number 525-1052. The jet is owned by ORIOLE CAPITAL LLC, a corporation based in Wilmington, DE, US, and is registered in the US. The aircraft’s factory build reflects standard M2 outfitting and its most notable registry detail is its corporate ownership and U.S. registration; valuation records list the airframe at $4,000,000 and indicate a late-model condition consistent with its build year and owner type.

The interior of N3JS is configured as a six-place executive club with an additional side-facing seat and the option for a belted lavatory, reflecting a typical light-cabin executive layout intended for short to mid-range corporate missions. Avionics aboard this specific airframe follow the standard M2 fit with the Garmin G3000, supporting modern flightdeck situational awareness, touchscreen controls, and integrated flight management suited to single-pilot or two-pilot operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include regional business travel and on-demand charter work between major Northeast and mid-Atlantic business centers, leveraging a cruise of 404 kts and a practical range of 1,540 nm from its corporate base in Wilmington, DE, US. Maintenance and operational planning for this airframe align with light-jet schedules for Williams FJ44-series engines and Garmin integrated avionics, factors that influence dispatch reliability and operating costs.

As a member of the Citation family, the Cessna 525 Citation M2 occupies the light business jet niche, offering efficient short- to mid-range performance with modern avionics and modest operating economics. With twin Williams FJ44-1AP-21 engines producing 1,965 lbf each and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the M2 competes with other light jets for owners seeking runway performance, low-hour cockpit technology, and cabin flexibility. Buyer and charter demand for late-model M2s centers on low acquisition cost relative to midsize jets, proven reliability, and common-parts support from Textron Aviation; these factors, combined with a listed value of $4,000,000, frame typical resale and maintenance considerations for corporate operators and fractional or charter fleets.
