N62SH

This article covers the specific airframe registered as N62SH, a 2004-built Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) bearing serial number 525B0002. The aircraft is owned by N62SHCJ3 LLC, a corporation based in Hayward, CA, US, and is registered in the US. No public record of multiple owners or complex registry actions is published beyond the listed corporate ownership; the airframe is classed as a fixed‑wing multi‑engine business jet and carries an estimated market value of $4,500,000. The listed condition and valuation reflect its 2004 build year and model-typical equipment baseline.

The airframe features the model-typical executive cabin in a 6–8 place layout, configured for business and short-to-medium haul missions consistent with Citation CJ3 practice. Specific avionics fit for this serial is not published in the supplied data; standard CJ3 installations commonly support single-pilot operations, but that capability is not asserted for this particular tail beyond model norms. Typical operator use for an owner based in Hayward, CA, US would include regional point-to-point trips within the aircraft’s 2,040 nm range and high-speed cruise capability of 415 kts, operating into business airports and smaller fields accessible to light business jets. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow Model 525B schedules for the Williams FJ44-3A engines and airframe systems, with records and specific inspections governed by the corporate owner’s program.

The Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) occupies the light business jet performance niche for owners seeking transcontinental regional range combined with single-pilot operation potential and jet cruise speeds around 415 kts. Competing models in its class historically include other light-cabin jets offering similar range and speed; buyer and charter demand tends to focus on operational efficiency, runway performance and operating economics for aircraft valued here at approximately $4,500,000. Resale and maintenance considerations for serial 525B0002 align with the broader CJ3 fleet—engine program status, cumulative cycles, and avionics updates materially affect marketability, while corporate ownership in Hayward, CA, US indicates likely West Coast operational patterns.
