N787EV

The airframe bearing registration N787EV is a Cessna Citation CJ3 built in 2013 with serial number 525B-0397 by Cessna (Textron Aviation). Publicly available records for this specific airframe show not published details for ownership timeline, operator or home-base history, and notable registry actions. Likewise, comprehensive valuation and condition highlights for this individual airframe are not published. The airframe is registered in the US and retains the factory designation and configuration typical of CJ3 examples delivered in this production period.

N787EV is outfitted in the typical executive cabin arrangement for the Citation CJ3 line with a layout accommodating two crew plus a formal passenger fit of 6–8 depending on interior choice; the standard forward cabin seating, mid-cabin club or conference seating, and an aft belted lavatory reflect the factory executive specification. Avionics for this airframe are the Collins Pro Line 21 suite as is typical for CJ3 aircraft from the period, while factory and aftermarket CJ3+ options are known to include Garmin G3000 upgrades (not necessarily installed on this specific tail). Typical mission profiles for this airframe match the CJ3 role: short- to mid-range business trips, single-leg hops up to the published maximum range, and point-to-point charters where high speed and runway flexibility are required. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft are not published in public records; any operator would follow Williams International and Cessna scheduled support programs appropriate to the FJ44-3A engines and airframe serial.

The Cessna Citation CJ3 occupies the light business jet segment, offering a balance of high cruise speed, transcontinental-ish range for its class, and a 45,000 ft service ceiling that enables efficient climb and favorable short-field performance. In the market, CJ3s compete with other light-cabin business jets for owner-operators and charter operators seeking lower operating costs and modern avionics suites; the CJ3’s Collins Pro Line 21 fit in this example reflects a common avionics baseline for resale. Typical buyer demand revolves around corporate and charter use, and resale considerations frequently hinge on engine-time, avionics standard (Pro Line 21 versus G3000 upgrade), interior condition, and adherence to manufacturer and engine maintenance programs for the Williams FJ44-3A powerplants.
