Description

*Strictly available for a 50% share sale. Not available for outright sale.* 50% OWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITY – CITATION CJ3+ Midwest Based | Professionally Managed | Part 135 | Turnkey Operation | Guaranteed Access Exceptional opportunity to acquire a 50% ownership interest in a late-model Citation CJ3+ without taking on 100% of the capital investment, fixed costs, or operational burden of whole-aircraft ownership. This aircraft is professionally managed and flown, with experienced pilots already in place, and is currently operating on a Part 135 charter certificate. This is a true turnkey ownership opportunity—you can step into an established operation and begin flying immediately. THE ADVANTAGE Unlike a traditional partnership where the aircraft sits idle when the owners aren't using it, the existing Part 135 operation provides an opportunity to generate revenue and subsidize fixed ownership costs from day one. The charter operation can also be strategically utilized to improve the economics of your own travel—helping reduce empty-leg positioning costs and offset expenses when the aircraft would otherwise sit away from base during longer trips. Guaranteed owner access provides the benefits and reliability of aircraft ownership while the charter operation helps improve overall ownership economics. CJ3+ ECONOMICS & PERFORMANCE The Citation CJ3+ delivers impressive performance approaching that of larger midsize aircraft such as the Citation XLS, while operating at approximately 40% lower variable cost. You get excellent range, speed, runway performance, modern avionics, and proven Citation reliability—without the significantly higher operating expense associated with moving into a larger aircraft. WHY THIS OPPORTUNITY IS DIFFERENT Acquire the benefits of a newer aircraft while sharing 50% of the capital investment and fixed ownership costs, with an established charter revenue stream already in place. No aircraft to source. No management company to establish. No pilots to recruit. No Part 135 certification process to navigate. Aircraft. Pilots. Management. Charter certificate. Revenue opportunity. Guaranteed access. All in place today. This is an exceptional opportunity for someone who wants the convenience and certainty of aircraft ownership while taking advantage of a structure designed to materially reduce the cost of owning and operating a high-performance business jet. Serious inquiries only. Full aircraft specifications, ownership structure, operating economics, charter history, and additional details available upon request.
