Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N601TX, is a 2011 Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) with serial number 525B0343 built by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is recorded as owned by MEGACJ LLC (an LLC based in Wilmington, NC, US) and is listed on the US registry. The airframe is a typical single‑pilot certified executive configuration and is identified in records by its US registration; no interim operators or additional registry actions are published for this specific serial in the provided data. Condition and valuation details beyond registry ownership are not published in the supplied dataset.
The aircraft is outfitted in a typical 8-passenger executive layout configured for single‑pilot operation, supporting business and private transport missions where small-group executive comfort and efficiency are priorities. With a long-range capability of 1,844 nm and an economical cruise speed near 416 kts, the airframe is well suited to transregional point-to-point flights and owner/operator missions operating from its documented base in the United States. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow the Citation CJ3 family standards, driven by the twin Williams FJ44-3A powerplants rated at 2,820 lbf each; any unique equipment fit or interior refurbishment history is not published in the supplied material.
The Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) occupies the light-cabin, high‑performance segment of the business jet market, offering the combination of single‑pilot certification, a high service ceiling of 45,000 ft, and a practical transregional range of 1,844 nm. Competitors in its class typically include other light jets that balance operating cost, short-field capability and cabin comfort for up to eight passengers. For this serial (525B0343), owner/operator demand, maintenance status and resale considerations will hinge on the airframe’s logbook completeness, engine cycles on the two Williams FJ44-3A engines, and any supplemental equipment or interior condition not detailed in the provided data.
