The aircraft is owned by 525-0635 LLC, an LLC based in Foothill Ranch, CA, US, which is the recorded operator/home base for the type. The airframe presents as a typical production CJ4 of its vintage and configuration; the registration supports up to 11 seats and the airplane carries the equipment and capacity details consistent with its factory fit.

The cabin for this airframe is described in the typical CJ4 executive arrangement, normally fitted in an 8–10-place executive layout while the registration supports up to 11 seats, and the airframe provides 77 cu ft of baggage capacity. The installed avionics fit is the Collins Pro Line 21 as is typical for the CJ4 configuration, supporting common regional and corporate mission avionics functionality. Typical mission profiles for this aircraft, given its range of 2,165 nm and cruise of 451 kts, would include longer light-jet point-to-point business travel and light charter operations from its California base. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe reflect standard CJ4 practices given its twin Williams FJ44-4A engines and executive cabin systems; no exceptional modifications or unique amenities beyond the standard fit were provided in the data.

The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 family occupies the light/crossover business jet niche, offering extended range and higher cruise speed relative to earlier Citation models. With twin Williams FJ44-4A engines producing 3,621 lbf each and a 45,000 ft ceiling, the type competes with other light jets that balance speed, range, and operating economy. Demand among buyers and charter operators typically centers on reliable short- to mid-range transcontinental capability and flexible cabin seating; resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe align with established CJ4 support networks and typical inspection cycles for a 2012-built installation.
