N65LW

This airframe, registered as N65LW, is a 2011-built Cessna 525B CitationJet 3 (CJ3) with serial number 525B0373. The jet is recorded as owned by WESTERN SLOPE AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in York, PA, US, and is registered in the United States. The airframe’s documented details reflect a typical in-service corporate light jet used for regional executive transport; no public record of major registry actions or notable incidents is published for this specific serial. Condition and valuation details are not published beyond the airframe’s factory-standard specification and owner registration.

The cabin of this CJ3 is described in manufacturer-standard terms as a typical 6–7 passenger executive layout, configurable to accommodate up to 9 passengers in higher-density arrangements; the installed interior on this serial is consistent with light-cabin corporate operations. Operated from York, PA by its registered owner, the aircraft is well suited to short- to medium-haul missions such as business shuttles, regional charters, and point-to-point executive travel within the continental United States and nearby international destinations. Maintenance considerations for this airframe focus on the twin WILLIAMS FJ44-3A turbofan engines and airframe systems typical of the CitationJet 3 series, with routine operator-level inspections and component life limits driven by regional usage patterns and cycles.

The Cessna 525B CitationJet 3 (CJ3) occupies the light-cabin, entry-level small jet niche with strong cruise speed (416 kts) and transcontinental-capable range (2,040 nm) relative to older light jets. Primary competitors in its class include the Embraer Phenom 300 and similar light-cabin business jets, with buyer and charter demand drawn to its combination of speed, range, and airport performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this model and this specific airframe focus on engine time on the pair of WILLIAMS FJ44-3A units, availability of updated avionics packages, and the overall completion condition, all of which materially affect marketability in the pre-owned light-jet market.
