N525EZ

This entry covers airframe N525EZ, a Cessna 525C CitationJet CJ4 built in 2012 with manufacturer serial number 525C0096. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is registered to ELI'S BREAD (ELI ZABAR) INC, a corporation based in Danbury, Connecticut, which is the listed owner/operator on the registry. The airframe carries a market valuation of $6,000,000 and retains a configuration and registry record indicative of owner-specific interior choices and operational use.

The airframe is equipped with an executive-style cabin intended for light business transport; the CJ4 family typically seats 7–9 passengers in a dedicated executive layout, while the registry record for this specific airframe lists 11 seats reflecting an owner-configured arrangement. Avionics fit is commonly the Collins Pro Line 21 suite (noted as typical for the CJ4), although avionics fit can vary by installation and may differ from the typical fit on this serial. Typical mission profiles for this platform include regional business missions and owner-operated corporate transport from its home base in Connecticut, with range and cruise performance supporting non-stop trips across much of the continental United States. Maintenance considerations for this aircraft follow Citation CJ4 schedules and Williams FJ44-4A engine programs; ownership by a single corporate operator may concentrate utilization patterns and maintenance history on business flight segments.

The Cessna 525C CitationJet CJ4 occupies the light-cabin, long-range end of the light business jet market, offering higher cruise speeds and range than earlier CitationJet models. With cruise near 451 knots and a range of 2,165 nm, it competes with other light-to-midsize turbofan cabins targeting owner-operators and charter operators seeking regional capability. Market demand typically favors well-documented maintenance and known avionics fits such as Pro Line 21; resale and charter appeal can be influenced by interior configuration (this airframe’s registry listing of 11 seats is an important differentiator) and total-time and engine program status relative to the listed valuation of $6,000,000.
