N521AA

This entry covers airframe N521AA, a 2016-built Cessna 525 Citation M2 with manufacturer serial 525-0920, produced by Textron Aviation Inc (Cessna). The airframe is registered in the US and is registered to ONE ALPHA ALPHA LLC of Oakland, CA, US, reflecting a single-entity ownership recorded in public registry data. Notable administrative details include the 2016 build year and the current market valuation of $3,650,000, which frames its condition and resale positioning within the light-cabin business jet sector. The aircraft is configured and equipped consistent with the Citation M2 type certification and corporate single-owner operational use.

The fitted cabin in this airframe reflects a typical executive layout: 6-passenger executive club seating with belted lavatory and forward side-facing seat, and the Type allows single-pilot operation when crewed accordingly. Avionics are installed as Garmin G3000, supporting modern flightdeck functionality and integrated systems for single-pilot dispatch and efficient crew workload management. Typical operations for this airframe profile include short- to medium-range corporate missions within the 1,550 nm range and high-utilization regional hops where a 404 kts cruise and 41,000 ft ceiling provide efficient trip times and favorable fuel management. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft align with light-jet schedules and the Williams FJ44 engine program requirements as applied to the airframe.

The Cessna 525 Citation M2 occupies the light-cabin, single-pilot-capable market niche, offering a combination of compact cabin comfort and point-to-point speed at a sub-midsize acquisition cost reflected by the $3,650,000 valuation of this unit. Competing models target similar missions and buyer profiles, and demand typically favors low-time, well-equipped examples with modern avionics such as the Garmin G3000. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe center on engine program status, avionics currency, and single-owner history, factors that influence marketability and operating cost forecasts.
