N525GL

This entry covers airframe N525GL, a 2015-built Cessna 525 Citation M2 with serial 525-0872. The jet is owned by QUEST ONE LLC of Wilmington, Delaware, and appears on U.S. civil registry as an LLC-owned corporate aircraft; registration and ownership are recorded in the United States. The airframe carries a professional executive condition profile with a listed market valuation of $3,800,000, reflecting typical mid-life Citation M2 values for 2015 airframes with modern avionics and lower-time Williams engines.

The cabin configuration for N525GL is documented as double-club seating with a belted lavatory, while broker material specifically cites a 5-passenger executive layout, indicating variability or optional interior reconfiguration options for this airframe. Avionics are a factory-level Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck with three 14-inch displays, complemented by TCAS I, GWX-70 weather radar, TAWS-B, and ADS-B Out — an avionics fit that supports single-pilot operation, IFR cross-country missions, and modern airspace compliance. Typical missions for this platform and this specific airframe include short-to-medium range corporate travel and on-demand charter runs within a roughly 1,550 nm radius, operating from the owner/operator base in Wilmington, DE, and surrounding Northeastern U.S. airports. Maintenance considerations for this airframe emphasize Williams FJ44-series hot-section inspections and Garmin systems lifecycle updates consistent with mid-decade Citation M2 examples.

The airframe is a member of the Cessna Citation M2 family produced by Cessna (Textron Aviation Inc.), occupying the light jet niche with efficient Williams turbofans and a modern glass flight deck. The M2 competes with aircraft such as the Embraer Phenom 100/300 and Mitsubishi-derived light jets in owner-flown and charter markets, prized for relatively low operating costs and single-pilot capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 2015 M2 like N525GL include airframe hours, engine TBO proximity, the value impact of Garmin G3000 avionics, and interior reconfiguration history (notably broker-noted 5-passenger executive layout versus factory double-club arrangement).
