N400HT

The airframe registered as N400HT is a 2004-built Cessna 525A Citation CJ2 with manufacturer serial number 525A0208, factory-built by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the United States and its ownership is recorded to the corporate entity DONALD D GODWIN LLC, based in Conway, South Carolina; this ownership is the primary documented operator/home base association for the airframe. No additional prior owners or transfer dates are published in the provided dataset; the airframe’s recorded valuation is $2,800,000, which reflects typical market listings and condition notes for comparable CJ2 examples of this vintage.

The aircraft is configured in a typical CJ2 executive layout described as 8-place executive club seating with a belted lavatory and a forward refreshment center, matching sale-listing descriptions of the model’s cabin. The avionics fit reported on available sales listings is the Collins Pro Line 21, a commonly installed integrated flight deck for this series, supporting regional business missions and single-pilot or two-pilot operations where authorized. Typical mission profiles for this airframe would include short- to mid-range executive transport, point-to-point business trips within a roughly 1,550 nm radius, and charter or corporate shuttle roles operating from the owner’s Conway, SC area base. Maintenance considerations follow CJ2 norms for turbofan inspections and engine support for the Williams FJ44 family, with the airframe’s recorded value suggesting average market condition for a 2004 example.

The Cessna 525A Citation CJ2 occupies the light-cabin business jet niche, offering transcontinental-influenced range in a small, efficient platform and cruise performance around 402 kts and FL450 capability. Competitors in this segment include other light jets with similar owner/operator appeal; buyer and charter demand historically favors well-equipped, low-time CJ2s with Pro Line 21 avionics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe center on the Williams FJ44 engine support, avionics modernization potential, and the airframe’s age versus its documented valuation of $2,800,000.
