N525WR

The airframe bearing registration N525WR is a Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) built in 1993, constructor serial number 525-0034. The aircraft is owned and operated by CAS AIRCRAFT LLC, an LLC based in Bossier City, LA, US, and carries a US registration. Recorded ownership and operator activity has been consolidated under CAS AIRCRAFT LLC, with no other operators listed in the provided data. Recent valuation information lists the airframe at $1,365,000, reflecting its configuration, avionics fit and market position for early-series CitationJets.

This specific CJ1 is outfitted in an executive six-passenger layout: a five-place mid-cabin club, a forward refreshment centre and a flushing aft lavatory, supporting short- to mid-range business missions. Avionics and mission equipment on this airframe include a Honeywell SPZ-5000 autopilot, Honeywell 2-tube EFIS, dual Garmin GTN 750 WAAS/LPV units, Garmin GTX 330 transponders with ADS‑B Out, Honeywell CAS-66A TCAS I, Honeywell KGP-560 EGPWS and a Garmin GDL-69A XM receiver, enabling contemporary navigation and traffic/terrain situational awareness for interstate and regional flights. Typical operations for this configuration would include executive transport and on-demand charter over ranges up to the published 1,300 nm, cruising near 389 kts, with operations based from the owner’s home base in Bossier City, LA. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect early-series CJ1 service items and common support for Williams FJ44 engines and Honeywell/Garmin avionics suites.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies the light business jet niche, offering single-pilot capability, relatively low direct operating costs and access to smaller airports. In performance it competes with contemporaries such as early-model Embraer Phenom 100s and Beechjet 400 conversions, with the CJ1 notable for a cruise near 389 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft. Market demand for early-1990s CitationJets is driven by operators seeking a balance of speed, airport flexibility and modest acquisition price; the listed $1,365,000 valuation reflects age, avionics upgrades and interior condition. Resale and maintenance considerations include periodic airframe inspections consistent with 1993 construction, engine cyclic inspections for the Williams FJ44 series and continued supportability of the mixed Honeywell/Garmin avionics fit.
