This airframe, registry N429EA, is a Cessna 525 (Citation CJ1) built in 2001 with serial number 525-0429. The aircraft is owned by DUMBO ENTERPRISES LLC (a corporation based in West Hartford, CT, US), which appears as the current registered owner. Registration country is US. No additional public registry events are published in the supplied data; the airframe is valued at $1,700,000, reflecting market position and presumed condition for a 2001-model Citation CJ1.

The cabin is fitted in an executive configuration typically accommodating 4–6 passengers in a club seating arrangement, with a belted lavatory option and a forward galley installed as standard layout possibilities for this airframe. Avionics common fit for this airframe include the Collins Pro Line 21, with retrofit options varying by operator and noted as selectable per owner preference. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft, given its 1,161 nm range and 381 kt cruise speed, include short-to-medium business trips and on-demand charter segments; the aircraft is operated from its owner’s base in West Hartford, CT. Maintenance considerations specific to this airframe focus on its twin Williams FJ44-1A turbofan engines and the airframe’s avionics retrofit history, which can materially affect operational availability and dispatch reliability.

As a light, fixed-wing multi-engine business jet in the Citation family, the Cessna 525 (Citation CJ1) represented a performance niche emphasizing efficiency and city-pair flexibility with a 41,000 ft ceiling and a 381 kt cruise. Buyer and charter demand for airframes of this vintage often hinges on engine condition, avionics fit (notably Pro Line 21 retrofits), and overall refurbishment status; these factors also drive resale considerations reflected in the $1,700,000 valuation for this specific ship. Maintenance of the Williams FJ44 series and avionics modernization choices are principal contributors to operating cost and marketability.
