Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N6UB, is a 1996-built Cessna Citation CJ1 (Model 525), serial number 525-0127. The aircraft is recorded in the U.S. registry and is registered to CITATION525 HOLDINGS LLC, located in Potomac, MD, US, reflecting a single corporate ownership listing in public broker and registry data. Sales and broker listings for this airframe indicate avionics and avionics-addon history that have been documented in marketing materials, and the aircraft has a listed market valuation of $1,550,000 consistent with its age, equipment fit, and condition reported in sales literature. The airframe’s corporate ownership and U.S. registration have been the most notable administrative entries on its record.

The cabin of this specific CJ1 is configured per sales listings with a forward single side-facing seat, a mid four-place club seating arrangement, and an aft belted lavatory, accommodating 2 crew + 6 passengers in the advertised layout. Avionics in this airframe conform to a typical CJ1 fit—Honeywell SPZ-5000 / Collins ProLine 21 style EFIS—while many broker listings for N6UB note dual Garmin GTN-750 units and updated GTX transponder installations as common supplemental equipment recorded in sales material. Typical missions for this airframe size and fit include short- to mid-range corporate shuttle flights, single-leg business runs within the continental U.S., and on-demand charter assignments from a Potomac-area corporate base, capitalizing on the CJ1’s combination of speed and runway performance. Maintenance considerations reflect a mid-1990s airframe with modernized avionics and Williams FJ44 turbofans, factors that influence inspection cycles and component value in resale.

The Cessna Citation CJ1 (Model 525) sits in the light business jet niche, offering entry-level turbine performance suitable for owner-operators and small corporate flight departments. Competing models historically include other light jets powered by similar small turbofan packages; the CJ1’s strengths are its efficient Williams FJ44 engines, access to smaller airfields, and a relatively low operating cost for turbine-class aircraft. Buyer and charter demand for a 1996 CJ1 is primarily focused on price, avionics upgrades (such as the dual GTN-750s reported for N6UB), and engine/airframe time; resale and maintenance considerations hinge on documented upgrades, overall cycle history, and the market valuation shown here.
