This airframe, registered as N525AY, is a 2006-built Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2+ with serial number 525A0303. The manufacturer is Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation) and the airframe is currently registered in the United States to ZEPPELIN HOLDINGS LLC, an LLC based in Destin, FL, US. Public records indicate the aircraft is operated under that ownership; no additional historical registry actions are published in the supplied data. The airframe carries an estimated market value of $3,500,000, reflecting typical condition and equipment for a mid-2000s CJ2+ example.

The cabin of this Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2+ is outfitted in the model-typical executive configuration, a 6–8 place executive club layout with a forward refreshment center and an aft belted lavatory. Avionics fit is reported as Collins Pro Line 21, a common equip option on CJ2+ examples, though individual aircraft equip may vary. Operationally, the CJ2+ with the specified engines and 1,781 nm range is often used for short- to mid-range corporate missions, owner flights, or light charter work based from the owner’s home location in Destin, FL. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft follow the CJ2+ program and depend on operator scheduling, with particular attention to the Williams FJ44 series engines and avionics service for the Pro Line 21 suite.

The Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2+ occupies the light business jet niche with performance suited to single-pilot or two-pilot corporate missions, offering a high cruise speed of 402 kts and a 45,000 ft ceiling. Competing models in the segment typically include other light jets offering similar range and speed; buyer and charter demand for mid-2000s CJ2+ examples centers on value-conscious operators seeking proven systems and efficient operating costs. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its year (2006), avionics fit (Collins Pro Line 21), engine model (Williams FJ44-3A-24) and recorded market value of $3,500,000.
