N628CB

The airframe bearing tail number N628CB is a 2005-built Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B), serial number 525B0049, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). It is registered in the United States to CIMARRON AVIATION INC, a corporation based in Bend, OR, US, which appears as the primary owner and operator/home base for this airframe. The listed configuration and equipment reflect a late-production 525B airframe typical of the mid-2000s build run; no additional registry events or transfers are included in the supplied data. Condition and valuation specifics are not published in the provided data.

This specific CJ3, registered as N628CB, carries an eight-seat interior consistent with the Model 525B's light business jet role and is operated from Bend, Oregon under corporate ownership by CIMARRON AVIATION INC. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include short- to medium-range business trips and charter-type missions within its 2,040 nm range and high-speed cruise capability of 416 kts, enabling efficient coast-to-coast or regional operations from the operator’s base. Cabin layout and avionics fit are aligned with CJ3 standards for the 2005 model year; no bespoke amenities, modification records, or maintenance-specific notes were provided for this registration. Routine maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow factory schedules for the Williams FJ44-3A engines and 525B systems under corporate ownership.

The Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) occupies the light-cabin, high-performance segment of the business jet market, offering fast cruise, transcontinental-ish range for its class, and a high service ceiling of 45,000 ft. Competing models in its niche typically include other entry-level light jets that balance operating cost, cabin size, and performance; demand historically skews toward owner-operators and charter companies seeking eight-seat versatility. For a 2005 serial 525B0049, maintenance and resale considerations focus on engine program status for the twin Williams FJ44-3A units and the completeness of avionics and logbooks, which materially affect marketability within the used light-jet market.
