N444CU

This entry documents airframe N444CU, a 2010-built Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 with serial number 525C0008. The airframe is recorded on the U.S. civil registry and is owned by KROWTEN AVIATION LLC, an Alabama-based limited liability company operating from Birmingham, AL. The airframe’s history in public records is centered on its single identified corporate ownership and standard U.S. registration actions; no other ownership transfers or notable incidents are published. Condition and valuation summaries are not publicly disclosed for this specific airframe beyond registry status.

The airframe, a Citation CJ4 configuration, supports up to eleven seats consistent with light business jet layouts focused on a mixed passenger/cargo executive role; specifics of the interior fit for N444CU are not published beyond capacity. Typical mission profiles for this airframe are medium-range business and charter sectors, exploiting its 2,165 nm range and 451 kt cruise speed for transregional trips from its Birmingham operating base. Avionics and equipment fit for this particular tail are not detailed in available records; maintenance considerations follow the Citation CJ4 program and Williams FJ44-series engine support network, with routine inspections and engine-program maintenance shaping operational availability. No unique cabin amenities or modifications are documented in the public registry for this airframe.

The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies the light jet segment with performance that balances short-field capability and transregional range, placing it against competitors such as the Embraer Phenom 300 and the HondaJet Elite in charter and owner-operator markets. With twin Williams FJ44-4A engines producing 3,621 lbf each, the type is valued for efficient cruise and high-altitude capability to 45,000 ft. Buyers and charter operators typically prioritize dispatch reliability, cabin flexibility for up to eleven seats, and lifecycle maintenance costs; resale considerations for this specific airframe depend on documented equipment, maintenance status, and market demand for 2010-model CJ4s.
