Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N831HS, is a 2008-built Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 with serial number 525B-0216. The airframe is owned by the corporate entity LUCKY DEVIL LLC, domiciled in Scottsdale, AZ, United States, and is registered in the United States. Documentation indicates corporate ownership and typical business-aviation use; no additional public registry actions or change-of-ownership events are recorded in the supplied data. Condition and valuation specifics are not published in the provided dataset, though the airframe age and CJ3 pedigree inform typical market expectations for maintenance and inspection cycles.
The specific cabin of this airframe is fitted in the typical CJ3 executive arrangement, noted as 6–8 executive club seating with a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory, supporting short- to mid-range corporate missions and charter work. Avionics fit for this individual airframe is not published in the provided data; operators commonly configure Citation CJ3s with advanced glass cockpits tailored to Part 135 charter or corporate flight departments. Typical mission profiles for this configuration include transcontinental and regional executive travel within the 2,040 nm range and cruise operations around 416 kts, often operating from business-focused airports around the owner’s base in Scottsdale, AZ. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with the CJ3 program: two Williams FJ44-3A engines with established shop visit cycles and modular inspection intervals for the airframe and avionics.
The Cessna 525B Citation CJ3 occupies the light-cabin, high-performance end of the light business-jet market, offering a blend of efficiency, speed and short-field capability with a 45,000 ft service ceiling. Competing types in its niche include other clean-sheet light jets and improved derivatives of the Citation family; buyers and charter operators favor the CJ3 for its proven Williams engine installation and cabin flexibility. Resale and maintenance considerations hinge on logbook completeness, avionics standardization, and engine cycles for the FJ44-3A engines; corporate-owned airframes such as N831HS typically show maintenance driven by operational tempo and Part 91/135 usage profiles.
