N45TE

This airframe, registered as N45TE, is a 2013-built Cessna Citation CJ4 (525C) bearing serial number 525C0125. The aircraft is recorded as owned and operated by ENCORE AVIATION LLC, a Jacksonville, Florida–based limited liability company; the current registration shows U.S. registry and Jacksonville as the operator/home base. As an individual CJ4 airframe, it reflects the 525C production standard of its build year, and its ownership history is highlighted by its registration under ENCORE AVIATION LLC rather than an individual owner. No independent valuation is published here; maintenance and airworthiness status are governed by the operator’s program and applicable U.S. registry requirements.

The aircraft is fitted in a typical executive cabin layout with a forward refreshment/galley, club seating, and a belted lavatory, configured to accommodate approximately eight to eleven passengers; it also carries single-pilot certification availability typical of CJ4s. Avionics aboard reflect the common fitment for the model, with a Collins Pro Line 21 suite installed on many CJ4 examples and noted as the typical avionics fit for this airframe. Operational missions for this configuration commonly include short- to medium-range business and charter flights from its Jacksonville base, leveraging the CJ4’s cruise speed and range for efficient regional and transcontinental sectors. Maintenance considerations follow the twin Williams FJ44-4A program and Cessna/Textron-recommended inspections for the 525C series.

The Cessna Citation CJ4 (525C) occupies the light-cabin, high-performance niche of the business jet market, offering long-range capability and high cruise speed relative to older light jets. Competing models in its class typically include other light-to-light-medium jets offering single-pilot operations and comparable range; buyer and charter demand often favor CJ4s for their combination of cabin flexibility, runway performance, and operating economics. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe follow the broader 525C fleet trends: supportability through Textron Aviation, parts and engine support for the Williams FJ44 series, and market sensitivity to avionics fit and overall time/condition of the specific airframe.
