Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N462CJ, is a Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 built in 2015 with manufacturer serial 525B0462. The aircraft is recorded as owned by 462CJ LLC, an LLC based in Midland, TX, US, and operates on a US registration. The airframe is a mid-production CJ3 example equipped and configured to contemporary light-cabin business-jet standards, and is valued at $8,500,000 in current estimates. No additional public registry actions beyond the current ownership record are published.
The cabin of this airframe is presented in a typical six- to eight-place executive club layout with a forward refreshment center and a belted lavatory; the model description notes that many examples feature an enclosed aft lavatory. Avionics fit for this CJ3 airframe is consistent with the type’s common configurations, ranging from the Collins ProLine 21 on earlier examples to the Garmin G3000 fit typical of the CJ3+ upgrade path; the installed fit on this specific serial is consistent with CJ3-era options. Typical missions for the airframe include short- to mid-range executive transport within the aircraft’s 2,040 nm range and high-speed cruise capability at approximately 416 kts, operating from a US base in Midland, Texas. Maintenance considerations follow light twin turbofan procedures for the Williams FJ44 series powerplants and CJ3 airframe schedules.
The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 occupies the light-cabin business-jet niche, offering transcontinental regional capability with a high-altitude ceiling of 45,000 ft and efficient Williams FJ44-3A propulsion. Competing models in the same mission bracket typically emphasize similar range, cabin seating for six to eight passengers, and single-pilot capability in some fits; buyer and charter demand for CJ3 airframes tends to reflect their balance of operating economics and performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial hinge on avionics standard (Collins ProLine 21 versus Garmin G3000), engine hours on the Williams FJ44-3A units, and retained value approximated here at $8,500,000.
