N82AE

The airframe bearing tail number N82AE is a Cessna 525 Citation CJ1 built in 2000, manufacturer serial 525-0412, and is registered in the US. The aircraft is owned by Main Street Logistics LLC, a corporation based in Birmingham, AL, US, which acts as the operator and registrant for this airframe. The airframe's avionics upgrades and ADS‑B equipage have been documented on the registration, and the type has an estimated market valuation of $1,700,000, reflecting its age, equipment fit and market position within the early 2000s light jet cohort. Condition highlights include the factory twin-engine configuration and a complete Collins Pro Line 21 avionics suite with recent Garmin additions, consistent with an aircraft maintained for corporate light-transport missions.

The cabin of this airframe is configured for six passengers in a double-club arrangement, with a forward side-facing seat and a belted lavatory and a forward refreshment center, matching typical corporate short-haul mission requirements. Avionics are centered on a Collins Pro Line 21 two‑tube suite with Dual Collins FGC-3000 / AHC-3000 flight guidance/autopilot systems, supplemented by Garmin GTN 750 and GTN 650 navigators and ADS‑B Out/In via GTX 345R/335R transponders, supporting contemporary airspace compliance and situational awareness. Typical operations for this configuration include regional corporate shuttles, on-demand charter within the continental US range limits, and light cargo or logistics movements under the corporate owner based in Birmingham, AL. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe follow Williams FJ44-1A engine schedules and avionics support for Collins and Garmin components.

The Cessna 525 Citation CJ1 occupies the light business jet niche, offering fast cruise speeds and high single‑piloted utilization with a modest six‑place cabin and transcontinental stage lengths around 1,300 nm in optimal conditions. Competing models in its era include other entry-level light jets that prioritize operating economics and airport flexibility; the CJ1’s Williams FJ44 engines balance performance and efficiency. Buyer and charter demand for early‑2000s airframes typically hinges on avionics modernization and engine program status; this airframe’s Collins Pro Line 21 plus GTN additions and ADS‑B equipage favor resilience in resale, while the listed valuation of $1,700,000 aligns with market expectations for a well‑equipped, 2000‑build CJ1.
