N518NE

This airframe, registered as N518NE, is a 2023-built Cessna Citation M2 Gen2 (CE-525) with manufacturer serial number 525-1155. The aircraft is owned by Jet OUT, Inc., a corporation based in Milwaukee, WI, US, and carries a United States registration. Delivered new into corporate service in 2023, the airframe is fitted and maintained as a light-cabin business jet and is valued at $5,032,394 in current listings. Registry entries indicate standard corporate operation from the owner’s base in Milwaukee with no additional publicized airworthiness actions.

The cabin of N518NE is arranged with a forward side-facing seat plus a four-place club, providing seating for five passengers in the main cabin plus one additional seat (noted as 5 pax + 1) and includes a belted flushing lavatory. Avionics fit on this airframe comprise a Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck with the Garmin autothrottle option available on M2 Gen2 and collision avoidance and traffic systems including GTX 3000 transponders and GTS 855 TCAS. Typical mission profiles for this configuration encompass short to mid-range corporate hops and on-demand charter legs up to the aircraft’s 1,550 nm radius at approximately 323 kts cruise, operating from the owner’s home base in Milwaukee. Maintenance considerations follow Textron Aviation light-jet schedules with support for the Williams FJ44 series engines and avionics common to the G3000-equipped fleet.

The Cessna Citation M2 Gen2 (CE-525) sits in the light-cabin, entry-level business jet segment, offering a balance of efficiency and modern avionics for owner-operators and light charter operators. With two Williams FJ44-1AP-21 engines producing 1,965 lbf each, the model targets buyers seeking high single-pilot capability, low operating costs relative to larger jets, and access to smaller airports. Competing types in this niche include other single-pilot-capable light jets; resale and maintenance considerations hinge on avionics suites such as the Garmin G3000, engine support for the FJ44 family, and retained value reflected in the $5,032,394 valuation for this 2023 airframe.
