Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing registration N525J is a 1997-built Cessna 525 CitationJet (Citation CJ1), serial number 525-0184, manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation). The airframe is owned by CJ525J LLC, an LLC based in Millersburg, OH, US, which is the recorded operator/home base for this aircraft. The aircraft’s title and operating control are held by the Millersburg-based LLC, reflecting a single-owner operating status in U.S. civil registry records. Condition and valuation notes are not published in the supplied data; the listed characteristics below summarize the airframe’s certified performance and configuration.

This specific Citation CJ1, configured with 8 seats, is suited to regional business transport and short to medium-length point-to-point missions from its Millersburg, OH base. While detailed cabin fit and avionics equipment for this airframe are not included in the supplied data, the Citation CJ1 family typically features a compact executive cabin optimized for hour‑efficient crew operations and quick turnarounds; those general characteristics are applicable to this airframe. Typical mission profiles supported by the listed range of 1,485 nm and cruise speed of 381 kts include multi-city business shuttles and on-demand charter hops across the eastern and central United States. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would center on twin Williams FJ44-series engine upkeep and calendar/flight-hour-driven inspections consistent with fixed-wing multi-engine certification.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (Citation CJ1) occupies the light business jet niche, offering economical operation and single-pilot capability relative to larger cabin types. With twin Williams FJ44 engines producing 1,900 lbf each and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the model competes with other light jets for owner-operators and charter operators seeking speed and access to smaller airports. Buyer and charter demand for CJ1 airframes generally focuses on operating costs, mission flexibility, and avionics modernization potential; resale and maintenance considerations for this particular airframe will reflect its 1997 build year and cumulative maintenance history as recorded under CJ525J LLC ownership.
