N521ZB

The airframe bearing registration N521ZB is a 2019-built Cessna Citation M2, serial number 525-1031, manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna). The aircraft is owned by PREMIER SR HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC based in Kannapolis, NC, US, and is registered for operation within the US registry. Acquired into the PREMIER SR HOLDINGS LLC portfolio as a light-cabin executive jet, this example is representative of late-production M2s and carries an estimated market value of $4,200,000. Condition and maintenance status are not published beyond standard factory specifications.

The cabin is fitted in a club seating arrangement typical of light executive jets, usually accommodating 6–7 passengers in an executive layout with an additional entryway side seat; the aircraft is registered for 8 seats. Avionics are provided by the Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck (marketed as the Intrinzic flight deck), supporting advanced situational awareness, touchscreen controllers, and integrated flight management suitable for single- or two-pilot operation. Typical missions for this airframe include short- to mid-range business trips, regional point-to-point charters, and owner-operator use within the continental United States, leveraging a cruise of 404 kts and a range near 1,540 nm. As a light-cabin twin, maintenance considerations focus on Williams FJ44-series engine support and Garmin G3000 avionics lifecycle and software update paths.

The Cessna Citation M2 (Cessna 525 M2) sits in the light-cabin, entry-level business jet segment, offering higher cruise speeds and pressurization capabilities than turboprops while remaining cost-effective compared with midsize jets. Competitors include light jets from Embraer and Honda/other light-jet offerings that target short to mid-range corporate missions. Buyer and charter demand for the M2 centers on owner-operators and small fleets seeking low operating costs, modern avionics, and reliable Williams FJ44 engine support. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe emphasize engine time, Garmin Intrinzic software currency, and adherence to Textron/Cessna recommended inspections to preserve the estimated $4,200,000 market value.
