Fleet Size and Availability
There are currently 2 Citation CJ4 Gen2 aircraft for sale, representing approximately 1.4% of all CJ4 Gen2s in service. Availability remains extremely limited, and with inventory this thin, individual aircraft characteristics play an outsized role in transaction dynamics.
Market Listings
Asking prices range from $11,950,000 to $13,500,000, with an average 153 Days on Market. With only two aircraft publicly available, days on market is less indicative of demand and more reflective of pricing precision, specification alignment, and buyer timing.
Sales Activity
Over the past six months, 5 Citation CJ4 Gen2 aircraft have sold (including 3 off-market), transacting between approximately $11,300,000 and $12,100,000, with an average 167 Days on Market. The high proportion of off-market trades reinforces the private, relationship-driven nature of this segment.
Key Takeaways
• Inventory scarcity continues to support price stability for well-positioned Gen2 aircraft.
• Off-market transactions represent a dominant share of recent sales activity.
• Buyer focus remains squarely on pedigree, cosmetics and equipment.
• Negotiation leverage is limited absent timing pressure or specification mismatches.
• Well-presented Gen2 aircraft continue to attract immediate, qualified interest.
Key Insight
The Citation CJ4 Gen2 is a scarcity-driven market: when a clean, turnkey aircraft becomes available, transaction outcomes are dictated more by readiness and pedigree than by broader market conditions.
