Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing registration N718AL is a 2002-built Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2 with manufacturer serial number 525A0118, constructed by Cessna (Textron Aviation Inc.). The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by individual Donald Dyer of Austin, TX, US, representing the primary and current ownership entry for this tail number. Acquired and operated from Austin, Texas under individual ownership, the airframe's recorded valuation at the time of the latest data is $2,800,000, a figure that reflects its model, year and configuration. Registry highlights include its continued US registration and an ownership history concentrated on this single private owner since the noted entry.
The cabin for this specific Cessna 525A CitationJet CJ2 airframe is configured for 6 seats, matching the model's light business jet interior intent and supporting short to medium sector corporate or private missions. Avionics fitment for this particular tail number is not published in the supplied data; operational planning therefore relies on the model-standard systems typical of the CJ2 series and applicable supplemental equipment carried by the owner. Typical mission profiles for N718AL, given its 1,600 nm range and 410 kts cruise, include single-stop coast-to-coast hops, regional business travel and point-to-point travel from its operator base in Austin, TX. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include normal age-related inspections and engine-specific support for the Williams FJ44-2C powerplants, reflecting its 2002 manufacture year.
This individual airframe is a member of the CitationJet CJ2 family, positioned to deliver light business jet performance with a high-altitude ceiling of 45,000 ft and cruise speeds around 410 kts, serving owner-operators and small charter operations seeking fast, short-to-medium haul capability. The aircraft’s assessed value of $2,800,000 should be considered alongside its 2002 build year and cumulative operational history when evaluating maintenance cycles, component life limits and eventual resale prospects. For buyers and operators, the presence of twin Williams FJ44-2C engines offers modern turbofan efficiency for the class but also focuses maintenance planning on engine support programs and calendar-based inspections appropriate to its age and utilization.
