As a Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) airframe, this aircraft occupies the light business jet segment within Cessna’s Citation family and is positioned for owner-operators and small charter operators seeking efficient, short- to medium-range capability. The twin Williams FJ44-1A engines provide performance consistent with high-speed cruise and relatively low operating weights.
