Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N503KK is a 2016-built Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3+, serial 525B0503, currently registered in the United States. Owned by JA AERO LLC, an LLC based in Missoula, MT, the airframe appears in civil registry under US registration and has been valued at approximately $5,800,000 in contemporary market summaries. Records for this specific airframe note factory-standard fitment and configuration consistent with CJ3+ production in 2016, and its documented owner/operator provides a clear domestic base of operations in Missoula, Montana. No additional public registry actions beyond standard US registration are recorded in the supplied data.
The cabin of N503KK is outfitted in an executive 6–8-place layout with a forward refreshment/galley and an aft belted lavatory, and provides approximately 65 cu ft of baggage capacity. Avionics reflect the typical factory CJ3+ installation with a Garmin G3000 suite, supporting integrated flight management, touchscreen controls and advanced situational awareness for single-pilot or two-pilot operations. Mission profiles for this airframe are consistent with light business-jet use: short- to medium-haul corporate transport, owner-operator flights from its Missoula base, and on-demand charter where permitted; the range and cruise speed support transcontinental capability within North America. Maintenance considerations are aligned with the Williams FJ44-3A turbofan support network and CJ3+ airframe inspection cycles; the executive interior and avionics package indicate current configuration suitable for business transport without extensive retrofit.
The Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3+ occupies the light-cabin, light-jet niche, offering higher cruise speeds and longer range than typical entry-level jets while retaining single-pilot certification in many configurations. Its competitors include other light-cabin jets in the same class, and demand is strong among owner-operators and smaller charter operators seeking efficient regional performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2016 airframe center on engine life cycles for the Williams FJ44-3A, avionics currency of the Garmin G3000 fit, and market valuation around $5.8M, all factors that influence operating cost and trade value in secondary markets.
