Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N739JS, is a 2005-built Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3 with serial number 525B0045. The aircraft is operated and owned by the corporation FlyExclusive (operator), based at Uvalde / Garner Field (KUVA), TX according to the operator’s listings, which serves as its operational base. The airframe carries a United States registration and is presented with an estimated market value of $3,969,598, reflecting its condition and configuration as an original CJ3 airframe. No additional registry actions or prior owners are published in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific CJ3 is fitted in a typical executive club layout with a 6 passenger configuration (club seating) and includes an enclosed lavatory plus a small refreshment/galley, consistent with executive single-pilot or two-pilot short- to mid-range charter missions. Avionics on this airframe are specified as the standard Collins Pro Line 21 fit typical for original CJ3s; the data notes that CJ3+ upgraded airframes use Garmin G3000/G5000, but this airframe retains the Pro Line 21. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft under its operator include regional corporate and on-demand charter flights within its 2,040 nm range and at cruise speeds around 416 kts. Maintenance and operational considerations align with a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet powered by twin Williams FJ44-3A engines.

The Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3 family occupies the light business jet performance niche, offering single-pilot adaptability, efficient short-to-mid-range legs, and a high-service ceiling of 45,000 ft. Competitively, the CJ3 is positioned against other light jets where buyer and charter demand favors cabin comfort for six passengers, lower operating costs, and sufficient range for regional missions. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect its original Pro Line 21 avionics fit and 2005 manufacture year, factors that potential buyers and operators weigh alongside the listed value of $3,969,598.
