N55BW

This airframe, bearing U.S. registration N55BW, is a factory-built Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 completed in 2013 with serial number 525C0136. The aircraft is currently owned by CAPITAN PEAK LLC, a LLC based in Mesquite, NM, US, and is operated as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet under the US registry. Recorded ownership places the aircraft with CAPITAN PEAK LLC; no prior registry events are published in the supplied data. The listed market valuation for this specific airframe is $6,700,000, a condition- and specification-dependent figure noted in available records.

The cabin of this Citation CJ4 airframe is fitted in a typical executive configuration accommodating 8–10 passengers in a club layout with a forward refreshment/galley, mid-cabin club seating, and aft seats; a belted lavatory option is available and actual configuration varies by interior specification. Avionics for the original CJ4 fit are commonly the Collins Pro Line 21, which is consistent with many used-aircraft listings for this model and likely applies to this airframe as supplied. Typical missions for the aircraft, given its range of 2,165 nm and cruise speed of 451 kts, include regional and transcontinental executive transport, on-demand charter, and business point-to-point travel operating from the aircraft’s Mesquite, NM base. Maintenance considerations follow standard light business-jet practices for twin Williams FJ44-4A-powered airframes, with inspection and component life cycles driven by utilization.

The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies a light-cabin business-jet niche characterized by transcontinental capability within a single-leg mission profile, combining relatively high cruise speed (451 kts) and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft. Demand in the buyer and charter markets is influenced by interior flexibility (typical 8–10 passenger executive layouts) and avionics fit such as the Collins Pro Line 21, with resale and maintenance considerations tied to engine type (Williams FJ44-4A) and completed-year (2013) status when assessing life-limited components and refurbishment needs.
