Model & Market Context

This entry documents airframe N7SG, a 2008-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 with manufacturer serial number 525B0240. The aircraft was produced by Cessna Aircraft Company (Textron Aviation) and is registered in the United States to the corporate owner LB EAGLE AVIATION LLC, based in Carlsbad, CA, US. Its certification and registration reflect corporate operation from a California home base, and current listings assign an estimated market value of $4,100,000. No public record of additional owners or major registry transfers is provided in the available data.

The airframe operates as a fixed-wing multi-engine light business jet configured with a cabin described in operator materials as accommodating up to seven passengers; the manufacturer's seating notation for the airframe lists 8 seats. Avionics are fitted with the Collins Pro Line 21 integrated flight deck, supporting business-jet mission profiles including short- to medium-haul corporate travel. Typical operations for this configuration emphasize point-to-point charter or owner-flown business trips within the aircraft’s 2,040 nm range and high-speed cruise of 416 knots, exploiting a service ceiling of 45,000 ft for efficient high-altitude routing. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow corporate-operator standards under LB EAGLE AVIATION LLC, with attention to Williams FJ44-3A engine cycles and Pro Line 21 avionics program updates.

The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 airframe occupies the light-cabin, entry-level business jet niche within Textron Aviation’s Citation family, offering a balance of runway performance, cruise speed, and operating economics. With twin Williams FJ44-3A engines producing 2,820 lbf each, the type competes with other light jets in charter and owner-operator markets where range around 2,000 nm and cruise near 400+ knots are valued. Buyers and charter operators targeting aircraft like N7SG typically consider resale value around the provided estimate of $4,100,000, along with maintenance status, engine time, and avionics suites such as the Collins Pro Line 21 when assessing lifecycle and refurbishment costs.
