N511EC

This entry covers airframe N511EC, a light business jet built in 1993 with serial number 525-0013. The airframe is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by MISSISSIPPI AIR EXPRESS LLC, an LLC based in Madison, MS, US. No further public registry events or historical incident records are published for this specific airframe. The airframe is valued at $1,700,000, reflecting its vintage, configuration and market factors for early CitationJet 1 examples.

The cabin is outfitted with 8 seats, typically used in an executive layout accommodating 5–6 passengers for operator missions; the airframe’s current operator configuration favors a reduced-passenger executive arrangement. Specific avionics fit for N511EC are not published, so equipment differences between individual CJ1 examples should be confirmed from logs or the owner. Typical mission profiles for this airframe class and configuration include short to mid-range point-to-point business trips within the continental United States, leveraging the aircraft’s cruise speed of 381 kts and range of 1,248 nm. As an early-production CitationJet with Williams FJ44-1A powerplants, maintenance considerations emphasize documented engine and airframe service histories consistent with age and usage; operator-based inspections and parts provenance are key to condition assessments.

The airframe is a member of the Cessna 525 CitationJet 1 (CJ1) family, positioned as an entry-level light business jet offering single-pilot capability, efficient Williams FJ44 turbofans and high-speed cruise for short-to-mid-range missions. Competing models in this performance niche include early-generation light jets that prioritize low operating costs and airport accessibility. Buyer and charter demand for CJ1 airframes hinges on maintenance records, avionics standardization and interior condition; resale considerations for 1993 CJ1s commonly reflect age, engine cycles, and upgrade status, factors that contribute to the cited valuation.
