N58SG

This entry covers airframe N58SG, a Cessna 525 Citation M2 with serial number 525-1403. Built and retained by Textron Aviation Inc., the aircraft remains registered in the United States and is owned by Textron Aviation Inc., a corporation based in Wichita, KS, US. The airframe is configured and maintained to manufacturer standards and carries an estimated market value of $5,000,000. Registry records identify it as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet with operator ties to its manufacturer/owner and typical use consistent with demonstration, fleet, or company transport roles.

The specific cabin of N58SG is arranged in a single-pilot-capable executive layout and supports typical 5+1 or 6–7 passenger seating configurations with a forward galley and an aft belted lavatory option, allowing for flexible mission profiles between corporate transport and light charter duties. Avionics are fitted with a Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, enabling modern single-pilot IFR operations and common type procedures for owner-operators and professional crews. With a cruise speed of 404 kts and a usable range of 1,550 nm, this aircraft is typically employed on short- to mid-range point-to-point routes, ferry flights, and manufacturer demonstration sorties originating from its Wichita, Kansas base. Maintenance and operational considerations follow Textron Aviation's factory support practices and the Williams FJ44 powerplant program servicing cycles.

The Cessna 525 Citation M2 occupies the light jet niche, offering a combination of single-pilot capability, efficient Williams FJ44 propulsion, and a modern Garmin G3000 cockpit for high utilization in business and charter fleets. With a published ceiling of 41,000 ft and cruise performance targeted at regional hops, demand focuses on owner-operators and light corporate flight departments seeking lower operating costs than larger midsize jets. Resale and maintenance considerations center on engine time cycles, avionics upgrades, and adherence to manufacturer support—factors that inform the typical market valuation around $5,000,000 for this airframe.
