Model & Market Context

This article concerns the specific airframe registered as N59JN, a 2010-build Cessna 525C CitationJet CJ4 with serial number 525C0018. The airframe is owned by CJN LEASING LLC, an Austin, Texas–based limited liability company, and carries United States registration status. The aircraft’s manufacturing pedigree traces to Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation) and it is powered by twin turbofan engines typical of the CJ4 type. No public record of additional operators or extraordinary registry actions is published beyond the ownership and U.S. registration.

The airframe is commonly outfitted in a typical 7–8 place executive club cabin layout, although some registries list a maximum capacity of up to 11 seats; the specific fit for N59JN follows the CJ4’s flexible interior design approach. Avionics for this airframe are consistent with the model’s typical installation of the Collins Pro Line 21 suite, supporting advanced navigation, surveillance and flight-management functions appropriate to business-jet operations. Typical missions for this CJ4 airframe include short-to-medium range corporate and charter flights within the continental United States, taking advantage of the aircraft’s high cruise speed and 45,000 ft ceiling for efficient point-to-point transport. As a leasing-company–owned asset, maintenance and operational cycles are likely managed to support multiple operators or on-demand charters, though detailed maintenance status for this specific airframe is not published.

The Cessna 525C CitationJet CJ4 occupies the light/entry-level midsize business jet niche, offering higher cruise speed and longer range than earlier CitationJet models. Competing types in its segment include the Embraer Phenom 300 and the Learjet 40/45 series, with buyer and charter demand driven by cabin flexibility, operating economics and dispatch reliability. For resale and leasing markets, the CJ4’s modern avionics and Williams FJ44-4A engines support favorable maintenance and residual-value considerations, while specific valuation depends on interior configuration, completed maintenance, and utilization history for each airframe.
