RADAR ESTIMATE

What N124BL 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 N124BL's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N124BL

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

Overview

This airframe, registered as N124BL, is a 2007-build Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3 with serial number 525B0181.

Operations & Cabin

The aircraft is typically fitted with a six- to eight-place executive cabin in the CJ3-standard center-club seating arrangement, with a forward refreshment center and the belted aft lav option available on some CJ3s as a possible configuration choice; this airframe’s seating is listed for eight. Avionics are typical for the variant, generally equipped with the Collins Pro Line 21 suite, supporting regional business missions and single-pilot or two-pilot IFR operations. Maintenance considerations follow CJ3 norms for twin Williams FJ44 engines and Pro Line 21 avionics upkeep.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna 525B CitationJet CJ3 occupies the light business jet niche, offering higher speed and payload than earlier CitationJets while retaining favorable operating economics. Typical competitors include other light-cabin, long-range light jets that appeal to owner-operators and charter operators seeking efficient transcontinental capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2007 airframe center on airframe hours, engine cycles on the pair of Williams FJ44-3A engines, and the life-cycle status of Pro Line 21 avionics, all factors that influence demand and valuation in the pre-owned light-jet market.
