N749JS

This entry documents airframe N749JS, a factory-built Cessna Citation CJ3+ (525B) completed in 2023 with serial number 525B0708. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned and operated by FLYEXCLUSIVE JET SHARE LLC of Kinston, NC, US, reflecting a single-entity ownership profile tied to a jet-share operator. The airframe carries a manufacturer designation from Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna) and holds an estimated market valuation of $10,100,000, indicative of near-new condition and current equipment fit. Notable registry information records the U.S. registration and operator base in North Carolina; no additional historic owner transfers are published.

The cabin of N749JS is fitted in a typical executive configuration accommodating 6–8 passengers in a club layout with a forward refreshment center and an aft belted lavatory, supporting short-notice corporate missions and high-utilization charter legs. Avionics are centered on a Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, which supports modern navigation, performance management, and situational awareness required for single-pilot or two-pilot operations depending on operator procedures. Operated by FLYEXCLUSIVE JET SHARE LLC from Kinston, NC, the aircraft is well suited to regional point-to-point missions across the continental U.S., leveraging its 2,040 nm range and 416 kt cruise speed for typical executive, group charter, and on-demand jet-share itineraries. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with CJ3+ fleet practices, including support for the Williams FJ44-3A engines and avionics lifecycle management for the G3000 suite.

The Cessna Citation CJ3+ (525B) occupies a niche in light-citation business jets prioritizing a balance of short-field capability, efficiency, and modern avionics, exemplified by this example N749JS. Competing models in the segment include other light-cabin jets offering similar cruise speeds and regional ranges; the CJ3+ distinguishes itself with its Williams FJ44 series powerplants and Garmin G3000 integration. For buyers and charter operators, considerations include favorable operating economics for missions under approximately 2,000 nm, strong demand in fractional and jet-share markets, and resale value supported by low-time, factory-new airframes such as this 2023 example.
