N996JR

The airframe bearing tail number N996JR is a 1996-built Cessna 525 CitationJet 1, constructor serial 525-0147, manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation). The airframe is registered in the US and is owned by Tango Corporation, a corporate owner based in Minden, NV, US, which serves as its operator and home base. Notable registry actions include its continuous US registration under N996JR and its retention within a single corporate ownership record since acquisition. The airframe’s condition and valuation details are not published in the supplied data.

The airframe is certified for single-pilot operation and normally outfitted in executive layouts accommodating 5–7 passengers in configurations typical for the CitationJet 1 family; the supplied entry lists 6 seats for this specific example. Operated from Minden, NV, the aircraft is suited to short- to medium-range executive missions within its 1,248 nm ferry radius and high-cruise profile at 368 kts, often deployed for point-to-point regional transport and business travel. Avionics fit, specific interior finish level and any unique cabin amenities for N996JR are not published in the provided data, and maintenance considerations follow the twin-FJ44 powerplant and light-cabin Citation type maintenance regimes.

The Cessna 525 CitationJet 1 family occupies the light business jet niche, offering efficient short-haul performance and a relatively high cruise speed and service ceiling for its class—here reflected by a 41,000 ft ceiling and 368 kts cruise. Competing models typically include other entry-level light jets that emphasize single-pilot capability and low operating cost; buyer and charter demand historically centers on owner-operators and small-corporate flight departments. For this airframe, resale and maintenance considerations hinge on Williams FJ44 engine programs, airframe hours, and interior/refurbishment status, none of which are detailed in the supplied data.
