N810SS

This airframe, registered as N810SS, is a 1996-built Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) bearing manufacturer serial number 525-0137. The aircraft is recorded as owned by NGO AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Lafayette, LA, US, and carries United States registration. As a late-model CJ1 airframe it reflects a typical corporate/charter ownership timeline for light business jets from the mid-1990s and has been operated from its owner’s Louisiana base. No separate public record of major registry actions or valuation changes is published for this specific airframe.

The cabin of N810SS is configured in an 1 + 7 executive seating (8-place executive layout), reflecting a single pilot or crew station plus seven passenger seats arranged for executive transport. Avionics fit is not published for this airframe; typical CJ1 operations emphasize short- to mid-range business missions consistent with the 1,248 nm range and high-speed cruise capability. Based in Lafayette, Louisiana, the operator’s mission profile likely includes regional corporate trips, air taxi and on-demand charter work within the U.S. southeast and Gulf Coast corridors. Maintenance considerations follow the CJ1’s twin Williams FJ44 engines and airframe age — inspections and component life limits appropriate to a 1996 build year are relevant for continued operational reliability.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies the light business jet niche, offering jet performance and single-pilot capability for small corporate or charter operators. With cruise speeds around 381 kts and a service ceiling of 41,000 ft, the CJ1 competes with other light jets of its era and class for buyers seeking efficiency on short- to medium-haul routes. For purchasers and operators of a 1996 airframe like N810SS, resale and maintenance considerations center on engine cycles for the Williams FJ44 series, avionics modernization potential, and airframe condition relative to market demand for eight-place executive-configured light jets.
