RADAR ESTIMATE

What N181CH 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 N181CH's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N181CH

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

Overview

This airframe, registered as N181CH, is a 2010-built Cessna Citation CJ4 (525C) with serial number 525C0015. The aircraft is owned by New CJ4 LLC, an LLC based in Bartlett, IL, US; the airframe’s registry reflects operation under that owner and U.S. registration. As a relatively late-production CJ4 variant it retains typical factory configuration and equipment for its model year.

Operations & Cabin

This specific CJ4 is fitted in a typical eight-passenger executive club layout with forward and aft club seating, an enclosed lavatory, and a forward refreshment/galley; operator configurations may vary but this airframe is documented with that executive fit. Avionics on the airframe are the commonly installed Collins Pro Line 21 suite for CJ4 airframes, supporting standard flight-deck systems and mission avionics for regional business operations. Typical missions for this configuration include executive transport and on-demand charter runs within the jet’s 2,165 nm range, operating from the owner’s base area in the United States. Maintenance considerations align with twin Williams FJ44-4A engine support infrastructure and CJ4 fleet commonality, simplifying parts and service due to the platform’s widespread operator base.

Model & Market Context

The Cessna Citation CJ4 (525C) occupies the light-to-mid-size business jet niche, offering transcontinental regional performance with a long cruise and high service ceiling. Competing models in this segment tend to emphasize similar combinations of speed, range, and cabin flexibility, driving steady buyer and charter demand for clean, well-equipped CJ4 examples. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by engine type, avionics fit (Collins Pro Line 21), and the documented executive interior, all factors that support liquidity in the pre-owned market.
