N51GN

This entry covers airframe N51GN, a 1999-built light business jet, serial number 525-0317, registered in the US and listed as owned by the corporate entity Powell Construction Company. The aircraft is a factory-built Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and retains the original type equipment fit typical of its production vintage. The ownership record shows corporate ownership by Powell Construction Company with no publicly listed change of registry or noted major reconfigurations in the supplied data. Condition details and independent valuation are not published in the provided data set.

The airframe is fitted in an executive six-place club configuration typical of the CJ1, featuring a forward refreshment center and a belted aft lavatory, presenting a conventional short-range business layout optimized for owner-operators or corporate shuttle missions. Avionics are listed as the typical fit for CJ1s of this vintage, the Collins Pro Line 21, supporting regional point-to-point operations, single-pilot capable procedures in many jurisdictions, and standard corporate flight profiles such as day trips and short intercity missions within the aircraft’s published range. Operator and base information beyond corporate ownership is not provided; maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow CJ1 schedules for Williams FJ44-1A turbofan upkeep and Pro Line 21 avionics support requirements.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet CJ1 occupies the light-jet segment offering economical short-to-medium regional performance, with cruise speeds and ceiling that suit quick intercity hops and access to smaller airports. Competing models in its era include other light jets with similar two-engine configurations and comparable range-performance balances; buyer and charter demand historically favors well-maintained CJ1s for cost-effective owner operation and entry-level corporate transport. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe hinge on provenance, engine cycles on the Williams FJ44-1A units, and the serviceability of the Collins Pro Line 21 suite, all key factors for valuation in the pre-owned market.
