RADAR ESTIMATE

What N103DS is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna Citation CJ3 on its own yet, so this borrows the Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve, scales it to N103DS's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N103DS

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This airframe, registered as N103DS, is a 2005-built Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) with serial number 525B0031. It is owned by the corporate entity HR Leasing LLC, located in Dover, DE, US, and carries a US registration. The airframe’s published market value is $3,395,000, reflecting its configuration and avionics fit. Registered to a Delaware-based leasing company, the airframe has been maintained in line with typical corporate/charter support expectations.

Operations & Cabin

The cabin of this specific CJ3 is an 8-passenger executive layout (forward club, belted bellet seats; baggage 65 cu ft external) optimized for short to mid-range business missions and light charter work. Avionics are a Collins Pro Line 21 (3-tube EFIS) suite equipped with ADS-B In/Out and WAAS/LPV capability, supporting modern navigation and traffic services for continental US operations. Typical mission profiles for N103DS would include transcontinental and regional flights within the aircraft’s 2,040 nm range at a cruise near 416 kts, operating from business bases consistent with its owner’s location in Dover, DE, US. Maintenance considerations center on the twin Williams FJ44-3A engines and Pro Line 21 electronics, both of which drive parts, inspection cycles, and avionics support costs specific to this airframe.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) occupies the light business jet niche, offering runway performance, single-pilot capability in many operations, and long-range cruise compared with very light jets. Competing models in its class include later-model light-cabin business jets offering similar speed and range; resale value is influenced by engine time, avionics standard (the Collins Pro Line 21 here), and interior condition. For an airframe like N103DS, buyer and charter demand typically favors well-maintained, avionics-updated examples, while maintenance and resale considerations hinge on engine shop visits, Pro Line 21 support, and the aircraft’s executive eight-seat configuration.
