Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N526AB, is a 2018-build Cessna Citation M2 (Model 525) with serial number 525-1012. The airframe is owned by AMANDAIR LLC, a limited liability company based in Concord, MA, US, and is registered in the US registry. Record entries show the airframe listed to AMANDAIR LLC without public indication of prior operators or leasing arrangements. The aircraft is quoted with an approximate market value of $3,850,000 and presents as a late-model M2 example with standard equipment fit consistent with the factory configuration.
The aircraft retains the typical executive center-club cabin layout of the M2, with the registry listing 8 seats and the aircraft fitted with the belted lavatory option as found on comparable configurations. Avionics are installed in the standard M2 fit of Garmin G3000, providing integrated flight management, touchscreen controllers and enhanced situational awareness suited to single-pilot or two-pilot operations. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short‑to‑medium range business trips within the continental US, leveraging the 1,550 nm range and cruise speed near 404 kts for efficient point-to-point transport. As a privately owned example operated from Concord, MA, routine maintenance would follow Textron Aviation and Williams engine programs appropriate to the FJ44-1AP-21 engines and the aircraft’s utilization pattern.
The Cessna Citation M2 (Model 525) occupies the light business jet niche, offering turbofan efficiency and modern avionics in a compact airframe. With twin Williams FJ44-1AP-21 engines producing 1,965 lbf each and a maximum operating ceiling of 41,000 ft, the model competes with other entry-level light jets for owner-operators and charter brokers seeking low operating costs and single-pilot capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this particular airframe hinge on careful adherence to Williams and Textron maintenance schedules and the value retained by late-model, well‑equipped M2s in the secondary market, reflected in the indicated valuation of $3,850,000.
