Serial number 525C0131 identifies this specific Model 525C CJ4, and the aircraft is registered in the United States to the corporation Pay And Save Inc, based in Littlefield, TX, US.

This specific CJ4 airframe carries a typical eight-place executive layout with a forward divan, a four-place club configuration, and two forward-facing seats, suited to short- to mid-range business missions. The avionics fit for this example is the Collins Pro Line 21 (typical fit for CJ4), supporting modern flight management, navigation, and surveillance systems used in corporate operations. Based in Littlefield, TX, US under corporate ownership, the aircraft’s mission profile is consistent with owner-operated business travel and on-demand charter-like point-to-point trips within its roughly 2,165 nm range at a cruise near 451 kts. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow CJ4 norms, including two Williams FJ44-4A engines and airframe inspections aligned with corporate usage cycles and executive interior preservation.
The Cessna Citation CJ4 (Model 525C) occupies the light/very light business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and transcontinental-range capability for its class, exemplified by this unit’s 451 kts cruise and 2,165 nm range. Competing models include late-generation light jets with similar performance and cabin flexibility; buyer demand typically favors well-equipped, low-time airframes with Pro Line avionics and executive interiors. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its corporate ownership, documented serial 525C0131, the two Williams FJ44-4A engines, and an estimated market value of $7,000,000, all factors that affect lifecycle operating costs and secondary-market appeal.
