Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing registration N524TF is a 2022-built Cessna Citation M2 (Model 525), serial number 525-1136, manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. The aircraft is owned by BGMG LLC, an LLC based in San Antonio, TX, US, which serves as the principal operator/home base for the type. The airframe’s factory-new 2022 build and current single-entity ownership record indicate a straightforward ownership timeline with no public record of multiple prior operators, and it carries a market valuation of $5,855,000 consistent with late-model examples in light-business-jet condition. Registry actions include standard U.S. registration under the Federal Aviation Administration with operator documentation associating the asset to its San Antonio address.
The aircraft is fitted in a typical executive cabin for the model: a six‑passenger layout consisting of a four‑place club plus a side‑facing seat and a belted aft lavatory, with accommodations for a two‑pilot crew. Avionics are configured with Garmin G3000 (Gen2/NextGen provisions), supporting advanced integrated flight deck capabilities used in single-pilot or two-crew operations and enabling optimized flight planning for the aircraft’s mission profile. Typical operations for this airframe include short- to mid-range business missions across the continental United States and nearby international destinations, leveraging the 1,550 nm range and high cruise of 404 kts for efficient point-to-point travel from its San Antonio base. Maintenance considerations follow light-jet schedules for the Williams FJ44 series and factory-recommended inspections for the Model 525.
The Cessna Citation M2 (Model 525) occupies the light business jet niche, offering turbofan performance suitable for owner-operators and charter operators seeking low-hour, efficient short-to-medium range capability. Competitors in this segment include newer very light jets and light-cabin entrants that challenge on acquisition cost and operating economics; the M2’s proven Williams FJ44 engines and Garmin G3000 avionics sustain demand in resale and charter markets. Given the airframe’s 2022 build year, modern avionics fit and single-owner record, resale considerations favorably reflect lower hours and recent maintenance status, while maintenance planning emphasizes engine-hour-based inspections and avionics/software updates associated with Gen2/NextGen provisions.
