It was constructed by the Cessna Aircraft Company and is recorded in the US civil registry with current ownership held by BETKOR III LLC, a limited liability company based in Kalispell, Montana.

No additional public registry actions or prior owners are provided in the supplied data.

The Citation I/SP configuration for N525PV supports an eight-seat cabin typical of light business jets of its generation, oriented toward short- to medium-range corporate missions. With a cruise speed of 357 kts and a maximum operating ceiling of 41,000 ft, the airframe is suitable for transcontinental hops within North America and point‑to‑point regional charters up to its quoted range of 1,328 nm. Operated from a US base associated with its owner in Kalispell, Montana, the aircraft would ordinarily be used for executive transport, private owner-operator flights, or on-demand charter within its performance limits. Specific avionics fit, interior finish, and maintenance history for this registration are not published in the supplied data.

The Cessna 501 Citation I/SP belongs to the early Citation family known for straightforward systems, modest operating costs, and lower acquisition prices relative to later-generation light business jets. Powered by twin Pratt & Whitney Canada JT15D-1 engines producing 2,200 lbf each, the model competes with contemporaries that emphasize short-field capability and simple maintenance over high-speed cruise or long-range capacity. At an assessed value of $669,000, resale considerations for this 1980 airframe typically hinge on engine life, avionics upgrades, corrosion and structural status, and verified maintenance logs, all of which significantly affect buyer and charter demand.
