N704PL

This airframe, registered as N704PL, is a 2017-built Cessna Citation CJ4 (serial 525C0261) manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc. The jet is recorded on the U.S. registry and is owned by the corporation PREMIER DEVELOPMENT AVIATION LLC, located in Davidson, NC, US. The documented registration and corporate ownership indicate a single-corporate operator stewardship since manufacture; the airframe remains U.S.-registered under corporate ownership. Valuation records list the aircraft at $8,500,000, reflecting market value for a late-model light business jet in active service.

The cabin for this specific airframe is configured in an executive 8-passenger layout featuring a two-place divan across the entry, forward 3-place/4-place club seating (as listed variably), aft two forward-facing seats, and an enclosed flushing lavatory. Avionics equipage is robust for the category, with a Collins Pro Line 21 suite that includes Pro Line 21 radios, Dual Collins FMS-3000 units, Collins GPS-4000S, Collins TSS-4100 TCAS II, and Dual Collins ADC-3000 flight data computers. Typical mission profiles for this CJ4 airframe would include short to mid-range point-to-point executive transport within its 2,165 nm range and high-speed cruise capability of 451 kts, operating from the owner’s base in Davidson, NC, US, and supporting regional business or charter missions. Maintenance considerations align with twin Williams FJ44-4A engine program requirements and the avionics commonality of Pro Line 21 installations.

The Cessna Citation CJ4 occupies the light business jet niche for high-speed, single-pilot-capable operations with transcontinental hop capability in certain payload configurations. In market terms it competes with other light/entry-level midsize business jets offering similar range and cabin utility; buyer and charter demand favors late-model, well-equipped examples such as this 2017 airframe. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the benefits of a standardized avionics fit (Pro Line 21) and the common Williams FJ44-4A engines, factors that tend to support retainable market value and manageable support logistics.
