Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N70HW, is a 1994-built Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1), serial number 525-0070, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The aircraft is registered in the United States and its current owner is Three Bears Aviation LLC, a corporation based in Bend, OR, which appears as the operator/home base in public records. The airframe's registry and broker listings identify it in a typical light business jet condition with a market valuation of $1,700,000, and broker information for this specific airframe indicates a four-passenger executive fit within the standard CJ1 cabin configuration.

The airframe is outfitted in a 4-5 place executive layout consistent with typical CJ1 configurations, with broker listings for this specific aircraft showing 4 passenger seating. Its mission profile aligns with short- to mid-range corporate and owner-operator flights, leveraging the CJ1’s capability for fast climb and efficient cruise to regional destinations. Based at Bend, Oregon under its corporate owner, the aircraft’s operations would typically include point-to-point business travel, charter work, and owner-flown missions within the aircraft’s 1,300 nm range and high-speed cruise profile. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow standard CJ1 schedules for the Williams FJ44-1A engines and airframe; no unique maintenance anomalies are published for this serial.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies the light, entry-level business jet niche, offering high cruise speed and relatively low operating costs compared with larger Citation-series types. With twin Williams FJ44-1A engines producing 1,965 lbf each, the CJ1 provides competitive performance for short-to-medium regional missions and access to smaller fields. Typical buyers include owner-operators and small charter operators seeking economical speed and ceiling performance to 41,000 ft; resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine TBO status and avionics updates, factors reflected in the $1,700,000 valuation for this 1994 serial 525-0070.
