N803SD

This entry covers airframe N803SD, a Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 built in 2010 with manufacturer's serial number 525B0341. The aircraft is owned by Pittsburgh Jet Center (operated as Private Jet Center), a corporation based in Pittsburgh, PA, US, which serves as the operator and home base for the jet. The airframe is equipped and maintained in line with typical CJ3 listings and is assigned a market valuation of $8,500,000; operational listings report a seven-place executive interior and Collins Pro Line 21 avionics fit, and no unusual registry actions are noted in supplied data. The aircraft is registered in the US and presented in executive configuration consistent with business transport use.

The cabin of N803SD is outfitted in an executive seven-place club seating arrangement with a belted lavatory and refreshment center, reflecting the typical CJ3 layout as cited in listings. Avionics are reported as Collins Pro Line 21, consistent with the typical CJ3 equipment package and supporting the aircraft’s business aviation mission set. Based in Pittsburgh, PA, the aircraft’s performance—chiefly a 2,040 nm range and 416 kt cruise—supports cross‑country point‑to‑point missions and regional corporate operations. Maintenance considerations follow the standard twin‑engine, fixed‑wing multi‑engine category practices for FJ44‑powered light jets; the executive fit and specific cabin amenities influence inspection and refurbishment planning.

As a member of the Cessna Citation CJ3 family, this airframe occupies the light-cabin, short‑to‑mid‑range business jet niche with a high operational ceiling of 45,000 ft and efficient Williams FJ44 engines. The combination of seven‑place executive seating, modern avionics, and the listed market value of $8,500,000 frames resale and charter valuation expectations for similar airframes. Buyers and operators of this model generally weigh fuel efficiency, cabin flexibility, and avionics standards—here represented by the Collins Pro Line 21—when assessing maintenance cycles and resale timing for a 2010‑built CJ3.
