The Cessna Citation CJ4 (Model 525C) occupies the light-cabin, high-speed sector of business jets, offering transregional range and efficient twin-engine performance via the Williams FJ44-4A powerplants. With cruise performance near 377 kts and a usable range of 2,170 nm, the model competes against other light jets in charter and owner-flown markets seeking a balance of capacity (approximately 8 passengers), speed, and operating economics. Factory-backed ownership by Textron Aviation Inc. can favor maintenance continuity and resale confidence, while the Collins Pro Line 21 avionics suite aligns the type with established avionics support and pilot training resources.
