N782JS

This entry documents airframe N782JS, a 2006-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 with manufacturer's serial number 525B0090. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by G-IV HOLDINGS I LLC, an Atlanta, Georgia-based limited liability company that serves as the listed operator/home base. Valuation notes place the airframe at approximately $4,900,000, reflecting market condition and configuration for a mid-2000s light business jet of this type. No additional registry actions or transfers are published beyond the current ownership record.

The cabin is fitted in a typical 6–8 passenger executive club layout with an enclosed aft lavatory and a small refreshment center; actual configuration may vary by operator but this airframe conforms to the common executive arrangement. Avionics for the type are commonly a Collins Pro Line 21 fitment on used CJ3s, and individual equipment on this airframe may vary from that common fitment. Operationally this airframe suits short- to medium-range executive transport missions within its 2,040 nm range and cruise capability of 416 kts, typically operated from the owner's Atlanta, GA base; maintenance and interior configuration are consistent with light business jet duties in private LLC ownership.

The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 occupies a light, fixed-wing multi-engine business jet niche, delivering trans-regional performance with single-pilot capability in many operator configurations. Demand in the buyer and charter market for CJ3s centers on efficient regional point-to-point missions, owner-operators, and small charter operators seeking low-to-moderate acquisition cost for jet performance. Maintenance and resale considerations for this airframe reflect its 2006 build year and installed equipment set — notably the twin Williams FJ44-3A engines and typical Collins Pro Line 21 avionics — factors that influence operating economics and market value.
