N430JF

This airframe, N430JF, is a 2004-built Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 with manufacturer's serial number 525-0530, produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The jet is registered in the United States and is owned by Ausome Aviation LLC, a corporate operator based in Atlanta, GA, US. Built in 2004 and recorded under serial 525-0530, the airframe carries the typical early-2000s CJ1 configuration and has been maintained in executive configuration for light business transport. No additional notable registry actions beyond corporate ownership were published for this specific tail number.

The cabin of N430JF is arranged in an executive layout typically accommodating 5–8 passengers with club-style seating and an optional belted lavatory, consistent with the CJ1 series’ interior flexibility. Avionics equipage for this airframe follows the series-typical fit of the Collins Pro Line 21, supporting regional business missions, single-leg corporate trips, and short-to-medium intercity runs within the jet’s 1,550 nm range. Based in Atlanta, GA, the operator’s mission profile for the aircraft likely emphasizes point-to-point business travel and on-demand charter operations. Maintenance considerations for this airframe center on the twin Williams FJ44-1A turbofan configuration and the legacy Pro Line 21 avionics suite, which may require specialist support consistent with early CJ-series systems.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 occupies the light business-jet segment as a two-engine fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft offering single-pilot capability in many operations and an executive cabin for up to 8 passengers. With a cruise near 381 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the CJ1 family targets operators seeking efficient short- to medium-range corporate transportation. Buyer and charter demand for airframes like N430JF typically reflects a balance of operating economy, range capability, and the availability of support for Williams FJ44-series engines and Pro Line 21 avionics; these factors influence maintenance planning and resale considerations for early-2000s CJ1 examples.
