Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N689TW is a 2023-built Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 with manufacturer serial 525C0426. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is recorded as owned by FWN LLC, a corporation based in Grand Rapids, MI, US.

Registry and valuation entries indicate a current operational condition consistent with active executive use and contemporary avionics fit.
The interior of this airframe is outfitted in an 11-seat executive layout with a forward galley, aft lavatory, and a dedicated baggage bay; single-pilot certified options exist for this model configuration. Avionics for the airframe are listed as Collins Pro Line 21, a common fit for the CJ4/525 series that supports modern flight management, communications, and navigation capabilities appropriate to business-jet operations. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft type and fit include medium-range executive transport and charter work within the U.S. domestic network, exploiting the CJ4’s speed and transcontinental range for point-to-point travel. Maintenance considerations align with turbofan twin schedules and support infrastructure for Williams FJ44 engines and Pro Line avionics.
The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies the light-cabin business jet niche, offering a balance of speed, range, and single-pilot capability attractive to owner-operators and charter operators. Competing models typically include other light to light-midsize jets offering similar transcontinental capability and cabin flexibility. Market demand for late-model CJ4s remains driven by charter demand and owner-operator interest; resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine time, avionics updates such as Pro Line 21 lifecycle support, and overall interior condition reflected in the reported $11,600,000 valuation.
