N897NH

This entry documents airframe N897NH, a 2025-built Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 with serial number 525C0472. The aircraft is registered to BANK OF UTAH TRUSTEE, a corporate owner based in Salt Lake City, UT, US, and is recorded on the U.S. civil register. Build year and serial place this airframe among the later-production CJ4s delivered by Textron Aviation Inc. (Cessna), and public records list the owner as a corporate trustee rather than an operating individual or charter company. The registration for this entry notes a valuation of $12,000,000 and an interior seating count of 6; specific interior configuration and any subsequent registry actions beyond the primary registration are not published.

The airframe is typically configured within the Citation CJ4 family to an executive layout commonly accommodating eight passengers, although the registry for N897NH specifically lists 6 seats and notes that the precise interior installed on this airframe is not publicly listed. Avionics fit for CJ4s is commonly the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 flight deck; the specific avionics fit for N897NH has not been published but is presumed to align with typical CJ4 installations. Operational missions for this airframe are consistent with light-cabin business transport and corporate shuttle roles: transcontinental or regional missions leveraging a 2,165 nm range and high-speed cruise near 451 kts from a Salt Lake City, UT base when operated by the registered corporate owner. Maintenance considerations follow CJ4 scheduled inspections and Williams FJ44-series engine support programs; any unique maintenance status for this serial is not published.

The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies the light-cabin, high-performance end of the small business jet market with long range and high cruise speed for its class, exemplified by this airframe’s 2,165 nm range and 451 kt cruise. Competing models in the segment include later-generation light jets offering similar range and cabin flexibility; buyer and charter demand historically favors CJ4s for owner-operators and fractional or corporate flight departments seeking a balance of performance and operating economics. Resale and maintenance considerations for N897NH follow CJ4 norms: values near the listed $12,000,000 for late-model examples, adherence to factory-recommended inspections, and Williams engine support remain key factors for prospective operators and financiers.
