N526MD

N526MD is a 2005 Cessna 525 Citation CJ1+ airframe, serial number 525-0604, built by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate owner based in Salt Lake City, UT. The aircraft is documented at an estimated value of $2,500,000 and is normally associated with operations from the owner’s Salt Lake City location. Notable registry details include its U.S. registration N526MD and the recorded corporate trustee ownership; no other historical operators or transfers are published in the available data.

The cabin of this CJ1+ is fitted in a typical corporate configuration described as a four-place club plus one side-facing seat with an enclosed lavatory, producing a practical 5–7 pax layout within the eight-seat certification. Avionics are reported as the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 suite, typical for the CJ1+ variant, supporting modern navigation, communications, and flight management capabilities for business and short- to mid-range missions. With a cruise speed of 324 knots and a range of 1,245 nautical miles, the aircraft is suitable for regional business travel, air-taxi, or trustee-held asset operations out of Salt Lake City and similar continental U.S. bases. Configuration and ownership as a corporate trustee imply usage and maintenance patterns oriented toward asset preservation and intermittent commercial or corporate missions.

The Cessna 525 Citation CJ1+ occupies the light business jet niche, offering single-pair turbofan economy with transcontinental-short-range capability and modest operating costs relative to larger Citation family members. Competitors in this performance class include other entry-level light jets that emphasize speed, runway performance, and low-hour operating economics. For owners and brokers, resale value and maintenance planning for a 2005 CJ1+ such as N526MD typically consider engine cycle life on the Williams FJ44-1AP engines, avionics suite currency (Pro Line 21), and the aircraft’s corporate-trust ownership status when assessing market demand and service history.
