N525TR

This entry covers airframe N525TR, a factory-built Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 Gen2 delivered in 2023 with serial number 525C0432 by Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna). The aircraft is registered in the US and carries a reported market valuation of $11,000,000 in current condition assessments. Initial delivery and entry onto U.S. registry in 2023 represent the primary notable events for this specific airframe; public ownership details and subsequent notable transfers are not published. Operator, base of operations, and any charter or corporate assignment for this airframe are recorded under the U.S. registry but otherwise not publicly detailed.

The cabin of N525TR conforms to the model’s typical executive configuration with a manufacturer-stated maximum of 10 passengers and common fitments accommodating 8–10 passenger executive seating; the installed arrangement on this airframe follows that executive layout. Avionics fit on the base CJ4 platform is the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 as a typical CJ4 fit, with Gen2 updated fitments potentially varying by customer and by spec on this airframe. Typical mission profiles for this class and this airframe include short- to mid-range corporate point-to-point transport, regional business trips, and light charter operations within the aircraft’s 2,165 nm range and high-speed cruise capability. Maintenance considerations reflect standard CJ4 Gen2 practices for twin Williams FJ44-4A powerplants and factory support channels; no unique maintenance anomalies for this serial are published.

The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 Gen2 occupies the light-cabin, high-performing end of the very light/entry light business jet market, offering transcontinental regional capability with a 451 kts cruise and a 45,000 ft ceiling for flexible routing and favorable weather-clearance profiles. Competitors in this niche include other light-cabin jets offering similar speed and range; buyer and charter demand typically favors aircraft with modern avionics suites and executive interiors, factors that influence resale and charter appeal for airframes like N525TR. Maintenance and resale considerations for this serial align with the model’s established aftermarket: engine support for the Williams FJ44-4A series and avionics commonality (Pro Line 21/Gen2 variants) influence retention of value around the reported $11,000,000 level.
