RADAR ESTIMATE
What N137BG 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 N137BG's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N137BG
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This entry documents airframe N137BG, a 2005-built Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) with serial number 525B0032. The aircraft is registered in the United States and is owned by Croell Aviation LLC, an LLC based in New Hampton, IA, US. The airframe’s configuration and registry data indicate it operates as a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet under corporate control.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of this particular Citation CJ3 airframe is configured for an 8-seat layout typical of light business jets in this class, supporting corporate and owner-flown missions rather than high-density passenger service. Avionics fit for the Model 525B generally supports single-pilot or two-pilot operations with modern glass cockpit suites; specific avionics for N137BG are not published in the supplied data. Typical mission profiles for this airframe include regional business travel and point-to-point trips within the aircraft’s 2,040 nm range and cruise speed near 416 kts, enabling transcontinental light-jet legs and efficient short international hops. Maintenance considerations follow the CJ3 program and Williams FJ44-3A engine support schedules under the owning LLC’s maintenance program.
Model & Market Context
The Cessna Citation CJ3 (Model 525B) occupies the light-cabin, light-jet performance niche, offering a balance of cruise speed, range, and operating economics. Competing models in the segment include other light-cabin jets offering similar payload-range tradeoffs, and the CJ3’s 45,000 ft ceiling and Williams FJ44-3A propulsion contribute to favorable operating altitudes and climb performance.
