Model & Market Context

The airframe bearing tail number N7773J is a 2008-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 with serial number 525B0223. It is currently owned by CHARMELIA AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Boston, MA, US, and is registered in the US civil aircraft registry. The airframe's documented condition and market valuation place it at approximately $8,500,000, reflecting its age, configuration and typical mission-readiness for a light business jet of this vintage. The retention of US registration under an LLC owner and operation from a Boston-based entity is the primary recorded registry/ownership fact for this specific aircraft.

The cabin of this Cessna 525B typically accommodates 8 passengers in a light executive layout consistent with CJ3 interiors, optimized for short- to mid-range corporate missions and private charter operations. Avionics fit for CJ3 airframes commonly includes the Collins Pro Line 21 suite; the Collins Pro Line 21 is noted as common for the model, while the specific avionics installation for N7773J is not published. Typical mission profiles include regional point-to-point business travel within the aircraft's 2,040 nm range and cruise at approximately 416 kt, often operating from business-oriented airports in the Northeastern United States given the owner's Boston base. Maintenance considerations follow standard CJ3 schedules and jet engine support for the Williams FJ44-3A series, with attention to aging-airframe inspections for a 2008-built airframe.

The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 occupies the light corporate jet niche, offering a balance of speed, range and operating economy suitable for owner-operators and charter fleets seeking efficient regional capability. Competing platforms in the market segment include other light-cabin jets offering similar cruise speeds and ranges, and buyers often weigh acquisition cost—here indicated at $8,500,000—against maintenance status and avionics fit. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on engine program participation for the Williams FJ44-3A powerplants, avionics upgrade paths (e.g., Pro Line 21 lifecycle), and the documented US registration and ownership structure under CHARMELIA AVIATION LLC.
