N409DJ

The airframe bearing registration N409DJ is a 2009-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 with manufacturer serial number 525B0311, produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is owned by BEACON HILL VENTURES LLC, an LLC based in Houston, TX, US, and is registered in the US; the registration and ownership are recorded in U.S. civil aircraft registries. As a late-2000s CJ3 airframe, it is typically presented in executive configuration and carries a market valuation of $8,500,000, reflecting airframe vintage, equipment baseline, and the model’s residuals at the time of valuation.

This specific CJ3 is commonly outfitted in a typical 6–8-place executive cabin layout with an aft belted lavatory and a compact galley, consistent with common CJ3 configurations; the stated seating is 8. Operated from its owner’s Houston, Texas base, its mission profile would be consistent with short- to medium-haul executive transport, including single-leg city-pair trips within the continental U.S. and offshore routes into the Caribbean or Gulf where the CJ3’s 2,040 nm range is advantageous. Avionics and exact equipment fit for N409DJ are not published in the provided data. Routine maintenance considerations follow the CJ3 program norms for the Williams FJ44-3A powerplants and typical component life-limited items for late-2000s Citation light jets.

The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 occupies the light-cabin, short-to-medium-range business jet niche, offering a balance of single-pilot capability, regional range, and fast cruise at 416 kts. Competing types in its class include other light-cabin jets that emphasize low operating cost and flexible mission capability. Buyers and charter operators seek CJ3s for owner-flown or light charter operations; maintenance and resale considerations for this 2009 airframe center on engine program enrollment, avionics updates, and the aircraft’s maintenance log continuity, all factors implicit in its $8,500,000 valuation.
