Model & Market Context
This entry documents airframe N963DW, a Cessna CitationJet CJ1 (Model 525) built in 1993 with serial number 5250033. The airframe is owned by WENTA NIP & SANITIZING LLC, an LLC based in Monte Vista, CO, US, and is operated from that location as its apparent home base. The aircraft carries U.S. civil registration US and was built by Cessna (Textron Aviation); its registry history includes being listed to the current LLC owner after prior corporate or private ownership transfers. As of the provided data the aircraft carries an estimated market valuation of $1,900,000, which reflects its model year and configuration.
The airframe configured as a CitationJet CJ1 typically accommodates a compact executive layout for 8 occupants, and this specific aircraft follows that standard seating capacity. Avionics and interior fit for this individual model are consistent with early-1990s CJ1 production standards, making it suitable for short- to mid-range corporate missions such as regional business hops and expedited point-to-point air taxi work from its base in Monte Vista, CO, US. Typical mission profiles for this airframe—given its 1,248 nm range and 381 kts cruise—include nonstop flights across regional corridors and connectivity to larger hub airports; maintenance considerations reflect the twin Williams FJ44-1A engine type and aging airframe service programs. Notable for operators is the balance between operating economy and the need for period avionics and interior updates on a 1993-built example.
The Cessna CitationJet CJ1 (Model 525) occupies a light business jet niche, offering efficient twin-engine performance with a maximum practical ceiling of 41,000 ft and transregional range. Competing models in its class include early-model Learjet and Beechjet/Phenom-type aircraft, with buyer and charter demand driven by low-hour, well-maintained examples offering modern avionics retrofits. For resale and maintenance, purchasers of a 1993 serial 5250033 should weigh the aircraft’s age against mission economics; the stated valuation of $1,900,000 reflects typical market positioning for a CJ1 configured for eight passengers with Williams FJ44-series propulsion.
