Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N70KW is a 2002-built Cessna 525A Citation CJ2 with serial number 525A0135. It is registered in the United States and is owned by WILAIR LLC, an LLC based in Memphis, TN, US; the aircraft appears to have been registered to that entity as its primary operator/home base. The airframe is a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet equipped for typical light-citation operations and is appraised at approximately $3,250,000 in current valuation estimates. Specific public records of notable registry actions beyond ownership and registration have not been published for this airframe.

The cabin of a typical Citation CJ2 is configured to carry up to 8 passengers in light business jet arrangements, and this airframe conforms to that seating capacity. Avionics for the model are commonly configured with a Collins Pro Line 21 or an equivalent integrated EFIS suite; specific avionics equip for N70KW has not been published. Operator missions for this airframe type and owner profile commonly include short-to-medium range corporate transport and on-demand charter operations within the jet’s 1,550 nm range and with cruise speeds near 410 kts. Maintenance considerations for this installation center on the twin Williams FJ44-2C powerplants and typical light-jet airframe systems; any unique modifications or interior amenities for N70KW are not publicly documented.

The Cessna 525A Citation CJ2 occupies the light-citation niche, offering transcontinental light-jet performance with a high-altitude ceiling of 45,000 ft and efficient twin Williams turbofans. Primary competitors in the segment have historically included other light-cabin jets with similar range and speed; buyer and charter demand tends to favor low operating costs and dispatch reliability inherent to the CJ2 family. Resale and maintenance factors for this airframe hinge on hours, cycles, avionics fit and engine program status; given the listed valuation of $3,250,000, market positioning is consistent with well-maintained early-2000s CJ2 examples.
