RADAR ESTIMATE
What N116TA is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna Citation CJ4 on its own yet, so this borrows the Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve, scales it to N116TA's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N116TA
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, registered as N116TA, is a 2012-built Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 with serial number 525C0116. The aircraft is owned by CBP Air Logistics LLC, a corporate owner based in Statham, GA, US, and is registered in the US. Operational status and specific prior operators are not published beyond the current corporate ownership and registration details.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of this CJ4 is typically fitted in a 7-9 passenger executive layout (single-pilot capable); exact fitout varies by operator, which for N116TA means interior configuration may be customized by the corporate owner. Avionics commonly installed on the model and present as a standard or OEM option for this airframe are the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 integrated flight deck components. The aircraft’s mission profile is consistent with light business jet operations: short international and domestic executive transport, charter, and corporate travel within a roughly 2,170 nm radius at cruise speeds near 451 kts. Maintenance considerations follow the CJ4’s twin Williams FJ44-4A engine inspection and component life-cycle schedules, and interior or avionics refreshes are driven by operator preferences.
Model & Market Context
The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies the light jet segment offering runway performance, single-pilot capability, and transcontinental range for compact-cabin jets. With twin Williams FJ44-4A engines producing 3,621 lbf each and a 45,000 ft ceiling, the CJ4 competes with aircraft such as the Embraer Phenom 300 and the HondaJet Elite in owner-operator and charter markets. Buyer demand typically favors late-model, well-equipped examples with Pro Line 21 avionics and flexible executive interiors; resale and maintenance considerations hinge on avionics currency, interior condition, and records for the serial 525C0116 airframe.
