Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N500TS, is a 2015-built Cessna Citation CJ4 (Model 525C) with manufacturer serial number 525C0194, produced by Textron Aviation Inc. The jet is owned by TRUE SPEED ENTERPRISES II INC, a corporate owner based in Brownsburg, IN, US, and operates on a US registration.

The aircraft is configured in a typical executive layout accommodating 8–10 passengers depending on operator choice, reflecting the standard CJ4 cabin installation used for business and short- to mid-range executive missions. Avionics and connectivity are operator-specific; examples reported for similar Model 525C airframes include Aircell Axxess II Iridium for satcom, Collins AHC-3000 AHRS, and ALT-4000 radio altimeter, indicating this airframe may carry comparable navigation, flight systems, and connectivity packages tailored to corporate use. Typical missions for this configuration include point-to-point corporate travel and on-demand charter over ranges up to the published 2,165 nm, with cruise performance near 451 kt and operations up to 45,000 ft. Maintenance considerations follow light-jet schedules for twin Williams FJ44 series engines and type-specific airframe checks common to Textron-produced Citations.
The Cessna Citation CJ4 (Model 525C) occupies the light-cabin, high-performance sector of business jets, offering transcontinental short-stage capability with the efficiency and operating economics sought by corporate owners and charter operators. Competitors in its niche include other light-to-super-light jets offering similar speed and range; buyer demand emphasizes cabin flexibility, avionics fit, and low-hour engines like the Williams FJ44-4A. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2015 airframe center on completed avionics packages, engine cycles on the twin FJ44-4A powerplants, and documented owner/operator records such as those associated with TRUE SPEED ENTERPRISES II INC.
