Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N430LX, is a factory-built Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 completed in 2023 with manufacturer's serial number 525C0430. The airframe is recorded in the United States registry (US) and is owned by SAFE AVIATION LEASING LLC, an LLC based in Wilmington, DE, US. The entry reflects a modern-build Citation CJ4 example from Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna) equipped to current production standards. The airframe’s documented owner and registration indicate a leasing/operator support profile consistent with corporate and charter fleet utilization.

The cabin is fitted in an Executive single-class layout, certificated for up to 10 passengers (typical 8–9 place executive fit), reflecting the interior certification and common executive seating density for this airframe. Avionics are installed as Collins Pro Line 21 (standard), a factory-standard fit for this configuration, supporting the operational systems and crew interface on the airframe. With two Williams FJ44-4A engines delivering 3,621 lbf each, the aircraft’s performance parameters (range 2,165 nm, cruise 451 kts, ceiling 45,000 ft) define mission capabilities for medium-range executive transport and leasing operations. The recorded ownership by SAFE AVIATION LEASING LLC suggests the airframe is positioned for commercial lease or operator assignment from its Wilmington, Delaware base.

This specific Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 reflects the CJ4 variant’s published capability set: a ten-place certificated executive layout, twin Williams FJ44-series powerplants, and avionics installed as Collins Pro Line 21 (standard). The combination of a 2,165 nm range, 451 kts cruise speed and 45,000 ft ceiling situates the airframe within a high-performance light business jet category suitable for corporate and charter operations. The documented build year 2023 and factory serial 525C0430 mark it as a recent production example with the factory fit and equipment carried through to its leaseholder SAFE AVIATION LEASING LLC.
