N540WC

This airframe, registered as N540WC, is a 2025-built Cessna Citation M2 (525) with manufacturer listed as Textron Aviation Inc (Cessna) and serial number 525-1187. The aircraft is owned by FIRST STATE BANCSHARES INC, a corporation based in Farmington, MO, US, and carries a United States registration. Notable registry information includes its US registration and corporate ownership; its reported market valuation is $5,150,000, reflecting a new-production airframe in contemporary executive configuration and condition.

The airplane is configured in a typical M2 executive layout with single-pilot certification and seating for 6–7 passengers in executive arrangement; the cabin includes a belted lavatory and forward/aft compact baggage stowage. Avionics are a Garmin integrated flight deck with M2 platform / G3000-style integration, supporting single-pilot operations and modern situational awareness tools appropriate for short- to mid-range business missions. Based on the owner’s recorded location in Farmington, MO, US, typical operations would include regional business travel and point-to-point corporate missions within the Citation M2’s 1,550 nm range and cruise speed capability. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe reflect the twin Williams FJ44 powerplants and contemporary Garmin systems specified for the platform.

The Cessna Citation M2 (525) occupies the light-cabin, light-jet niche within Textron Aviation’s Citation family, offering single-pilot certification and efficient two-engine performance. With a cruise speed of 404 kts, a 1,550 nm range and a 41,000 ft ceiling, it competes in the market segment against other entry-level light business jets seeking cost-effective regional speed and access. Buyer and charter demand for M2 airframes typically emphasize owner-operators and corporate fleets seeking low operating complexity and modern avionics; resale considerations for this airframe will factor in its 2025 build year, complete Garmin/G3000-style fit, and corporate ownership history.
