N858DD

This entry describes airframe N858DD, a Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) built in 1993 with serial number 525-0046. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is registered to DOSS AIR LLC of Mounds, IL, US, which serves as the operator/home base for this airframe in available records. Registry listings and broker summaries place a current estimated market valuation at $1,205,961, providing a baseline for condition and resale considerations. Documentation does not list additional notable registry actions beyond the current ownership record.

The cabin configuration for this specific CJ1 airframe is recorded as a typical 5–6 place executive layout in operator listings, though some broker and operator materials reference a six-seat executive layout for similar listings. Avionics fit and supplemental equipment for N858DD are not published in the supplied data. With a cruise speed of 381 kts and a range of 1,248 nm, the aircraft is suited to short- to medium-range business missions and on-demand charter legs from its Mounds, Illinois base. Maintenance considerations should account for the aircraft's 1993 build year and the Williams FJ44 engine series lifecycle profiles as relevant to inspection and overhaul planning.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet (CJ1) occupies the light business jet niche within Textron Aviation's Citation family, offering relatively high cruise speeds and modest transcontinental range for its class. Its twin Williams FJ44 engines provide efficient thrust for point-to-point corporate and charter missions, competing with other entry-level light jets in buyer and charter demand. Given the airframe's 1993 manufacture date and a recorded value of $1,205,961, prospective buyers and operators will weigh ongoing maintenance, parts availability, and overhaul timing in resale and operational cost assessments.
