N889TA

This entry covers airframe N889TA, a 2014-built Cessna 525 Citation M2 with serial number 525-0823. The aircraft is owned by PRIVATE FLIGHT II LLC, an Oklahoma City, Oklahoma–based limited liability company that appears as the registered owner and operator/home base in public U.S. records. The U.S.-registered airframe is recorded with a market valuation of $4,500,000, and FAA documentation notes seat registration and equipment entries relevant to its executive role. There are no public records here of prior corporate owners or major registry transfers beyond the current LLC ownership.

The airframe is fitted in a typical six–seven passenger executive club layout for operator use, although FAA registration records show 8 seats on the certificate, reflecting either a customer-specific interior arrangement or alternate layout capability. Avionics are configured with a Garmin G3000 integrated flight deck, supporting modern flight management, synthetic vision and advanced autopilot features appropriate to single-pilot or two-pilot operations in the light business jet class. Typical missions for this configuration include short- to mid-range executive transport and on-demand charter flights within the aircraft’s 1,540 nm range and long-range cruise capability at 404 kts, operating commercially or privately out of its Oklahoma City base. Maintenance considerations follow Textron Aviation recommended schedules for the Citation M2 and Williams FJ44-series powerplants; owner/operator maintenance programs commonly influence dispatch reliability and resale condition.

The Cessna 525 Citation M2 occupies the light-cabin, entry-level jet niche for owners seeking lower operating costs and runway performance combined with modern avionics like the Garmin G3000. Competing models in the segment include light business jets from Embraer and Honda/other manufacturers, where buyers prioritize single-pilot certification, cabin flexibility and operating economics. Given the airframe’s 2014 build year, twin Williams FJ44 engines and an eight-seat certification, resale and charter demand is tied to maintenance provenance, interior configuration, and avionics standardization; a well-maintained example with a common Garmin fit and documented maintenance history supports stronger marketability near its listed $4,500,000 valuation.
