Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N851FS, is a 2005-built Cessna 525A CitationJet 2 with serial number 525A0234. The aircraft is currently owned by Seminole Boosters Inc (a corporation based in Tallahassee, FL, US) and is U.S.-registered. The airframe’s documented valuation is $3,500,000, and its configuration and performance figures align with light twin business-jet operations from its home base in Tallahassee. Registered to Seminole Boosters Inc, this airframe represents a single-owner corporate-operated example within the CitationJet 2 fleet.

The cabin of this airframe follows the typical 7–8 place executive layout common on CJ2s, often featuring a forward galley and club seating arrangement suitable for business transport of small groups. Specific avionics fit for this serial is not published; mission planning for this airframe relies on its documented cruise speed of 402 kts and a practical mission radius within its 1,500 nm range. Operated from Tallahassee under corporate ownership, typical route profiles would be short-to-medium regional business hops and single-stop trips across the continental United States consistent with its fuel and performance characteristics. Maintenance considerations are aligned with light twin turbine practice for Williams FJ44-2C powered airframes and corporate operational schedules.

The airframe is a member of the Cessna (Textron Aviation) 525A CitationJet 2 family, positioned as a fixed-wing multi-engine light business jet with performance figures—402 kts cruise and a 45,000 ft ceiling—that suit corporate transport missions. With seating for 8 and a range of 1,500 nm, the model occupies a niche for operators seeking efficient regional capability in a compact cabin. The documented value of $3,500,000 for this 2005 airframe informs resale and charter economics for owner-operators and fleet buyers assessing lifecycle and market competitiveness within its category.
