N701JS

This entry describes airframe N701JS, a production Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3+ built in 2020 with serial number 525B-0607. The airframe is recorded as owned by an individual with status registration pending and carries a US registration designation; no long-term operator or home base is published. Notable registry action includes the registration pending status indicated for the current owner. The aircraft’s market valuation is listed at $8,475,000, reflecting a late-model CJ3+ in typical executive configuration.

The airframe is outfitted in a typical executive cabin described as a 6–8 place layout with club seating, a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory, consistent with CJ3+ interiors for business and private use. Avionics fit for this airframe follows the typical CJ3+ installation of the Garmin G3000 integrated flightdeck, supporting modern flight operations and situational awareness. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft include short- to mid-range executive transport and charter missions within the transcontinental and regional spectrum enabled by a 2,040 nm range and cruise speed near 416 kts. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe align with CJ3+ fleet practices for the Williams FJ44-3A engines and Garmin glass cockpit systems; individual logbooks and operator maintenance records were not supplied.

The Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3+ occupies a light-cabin, light-jet performance niche offering high-speed cruise, transcontinental capability for its class, and a 45,000 ft service ceiling. Competing models in the segment include other light-cabin jets that prioritize short-field performance and efficient cruise; buyer and charter demand tends to favor late-model CJ3+ airframes for their operational versatility. Resale and maintenance considerations emphasize engine time on the Williams FJ44-3A pair and the provenance of avionics upgrades such as the Garmin G3000, with valuation for this specific airframe reported at $8,475,000.
