N813FM

This entry covers airframe N813FM, a 2015-built light business jet, serial 525-0884, manufactured by Textron Aviation Inc (Cessna) as a Cessna 525 Citation M2. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by KEVIN PARRA AVIATION LLC, a San Diego, California–based corporation; the current registration ties the airframe to that corporate owner in San Diego, CA. The airframe is configured and valued as a mid-cycle Citation M2 example, with an estimated market value of $4,500,000 and operator-configurable cabin fittings reflective of a typical light-cabin executive fleet asset.

The cabin of N813FM is presented in a typical M2 executive arrangement with six principal passenger seats in club configuration plus a belted aft lavatory seat, although the layout is noted as operator-configurable to suit mission needs. Avionics are specified as the Garmin G3000 suite consistent with the M2 type-fit, supporting advanced situational awareness and reduced pilot workload for short- to medium-range operations. With a maximum cruise of 404 kts and a range of 1,540 nm, the aircraft is well-suited to point-to-point regional business missions from its San Diego operator base. Maintenance considerations align with light-jet practices for Williams FJ44 series turbofans and Textron-supported component programs; the corporate ownership structure suggests operation under private or charter modalities.

The Cessna 525 Citation M2 occupies the light twinjet niche, offering high single-pilot capability, relatively low operating costs and access to smaller airports compared with larger jets. With twin Williams FJ44-1AP-21 engines producing 1,965 lbf each, the type balances performance (ceiling 41,000 ft, cruise 404 kts) against acquisition costs; a 2015 example such as N813FM and its $4,500,000 valuation reflect steady demand among owner-operators and charter operators seeking compact, efficient business-jet capability. Resale and maintenance considerations focus on engine program participation, avionics commonality (Garmin G3000), and cabin reconfiguration options that affect marketability within the light-jet segment.
