Model & Market Context

This airframe, registration N426NS, is a 2014-built Cessna Citation CJ3+ (525B) bearing serial number 525B0457. The jet is registered in the United States and recorded as owned by MUSTANG 426NS LLC, an LLC based in Leawood, KS, US. As a single airframe entry, the record highlights standard CJ3+ features and a market valuation placed at $8,500,000, reflecting its configuration and year of manufacture. No additional operator changes or notable registry actions beyond the LLC ownership have been published for this specific serial.

The cabin of N426NS is fitted in the standard CJ3+ executive layout with a typical six-place club seating arrangement complemented by a forward refreshment center and an enclosed aft lavatory, reflecting the advertised factory executive fit for the model. Avionics for this airframe are the Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, supporting modern flight-management, navigation, and situational-awareness capabilities appropriate to business-jet missions. Typical operations for this platform include short- to mid-range corporate and private transport missions across continental routes consistent with its 2,040 nm range and cruise speed of 416 kts. Based on the owner location in Leawood, KS, routine basing and maintenance planning would be expected to follow U.S. regulatory and operator support channels under the registered LLC ownership structure.

The Cessna Citation CJ3+ (525B) sits in the light-cabin, long-range end of the light jet category, offering higher cruise speed and range than earlier Citation CJ variants while retaining single-pilot capability in many operations. Competing models in the segment include other advanced light jets equipped with modern avionics suites and similar performance envelopes; resale and buyer demand for well-equipped CJ3+ examples remains steady, driven by corporate and charter buyers seeking efficient transcontinental capability. Maintenance considerations for this airframe type generally focus on Williams FJ44 series engine programs, avionics support for Garmin G3000, and the residual-value implications of year and total-time factors represented by a 2014 serial like 525B0457.
