Model & Market Context
This entry covers airframe N533TX, a factory-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3+ delivered in 2018 with serial number 525B0566. The aircraft is owned and operated by NLW Inc. dba Jet Logistics (TxJet), a corporate registrant located in Indianapolis, IN, and appears on the US civil register. Notable registry information includes the corporate ownership and operation under a charter/logistics trade name, and the airframe carries an assessed market valuation of $9,500,000 reflecting its as-built configuration and recent model year.
The cabin of N533TX is fitted in the typical executive CJ3+ configuration, accommodating an executive 6–8 passenger club/facing layout with belted lavatory, optimized for short- to mid-range corporate and charter missions. Avionics are the common CJ3+ fit, typically a Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, supporting single-pilot IFR operations and high-automation flight profiles. With a long cruise speed and a range of over 2,000 nm, this airframe is suitable for regional point-to-point charters, corporate hops out of Indianapolis, IN, and single-leg transcontinental segments depending on payload. Maintenance considerations align with the CJ3+ fleet program and corporate operator practices under NLW Inc. dba Jet Logistics (TxJet), emphasizing dispatch reliability for charter operations.
The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3+ occupies the light-cabin, high-performance end of the light-jet market, offering piston-like operating economics with turbofan performance suitable for owner-operators and charter operators alike. Competing models in this category include later-model light jets and very light jets with similar mission profiles; the CJ3+ differentiates through its balanced range, cruise speed, and established support network from Textron Aviation. For buyers and operators, considerations include lifecycle maintenance on the Williams FJ44-3A engines, avionics upgrades over time, and resale dynamics where late-model, low-hour airframes like this 2018 example tend to command premium pricing in the preowned market.
