CONTINUOUS AIRWORTHINESS PROGRAM
Your Citation CJ1+ Scheduled Maintenance Program was developed to meet the requirements detailed in
14 CFR 91.409, paragraph (e), of the Federal Aviation Regulations which states that turbojet multi-engine
airplanes must be inspected in accordance with the current inspection program recommended by the
manufacturer (Cessna). The following is a description of the continuous inspection program for the Model
525, recommended by the Cessna Aircraft Company and presented in Chapter 5 of the Cessna Model 525
Maintenance Manual. This description is provided for reference only.

For airplanes registered in countries other than the United States, the procedures specified by the
Airworthiness Authority of that country are to be followed.

CONSTRUCTION

1. A continuous maintenance inspection program applicable for your airplane should be selected
as early as possible. The inspection program timing begins from the Date of Airworthiness for
monthly items. For hourly and Supplier items, the inspection program may begin prior to the
Date of Airworthiness.

2. The Cessna recommended program is organized into “Inspection Documents” and is published
in Chapter 5, Section 12 (5-12) of the Cessna Model 525 Maintenance Manual. The program in
Chapter 5-12 must be adhered to as published. Cessna recommends subscribing to CESCOM
Online for inspection program tracking. Time limited components are listed in Chapter 5,
Section 11 (5-11).

3. Each customer has the option to create their own custom program. Provided inspections are
accomplished within the time frame specified in Chapter 5, no additional approval is required
from Cessna or the FAA.

4. Most inspections repeat either as a result of a number of years or number of hours that is
divisible by 300.

5. Intervals for some inspections are determined by the component manufacturer. The applicable
component manual gives the information necessary to determine those intervals. Refer to the
Model 525 Illustrated Parts Catalog, Introduction and Supplier Publication List.

6. Chapter 4 inspection items are listed in Chapter 5 as individual Inspection Documents and begin
with the letter M. Please note that the actual intervals for these inspection items are exactly the
same as listed in Chapter 4. Should Chapter 4 and Chapter 5 intervals differ, Chapter 4 takes
precedence.

7. Operators and maintenance technicians can perform and report Chapter 4 inspections
individually, without performing them with other Inspection Documents.

8. Williams engine manuals are part of the Model 525 Instructions for Continued Airworthiness and
identify engine inspection requirements.

CD-ROM TECHNICAL LIBRARY

1. Chapter 5 of the Maintenance Manual CD-ROM contains a search feature. With this, any item
code can be found in one step. Along with the item code is the inspection task name and zone
location. A task number is provided containing specific inspection instructions. By double
clicking on the highlighted task number, the link will take you to specific task information in the
appropriate section of the manual.

2. A “Print Task” function is available to print the task text. The feature is also capable of printing
all tasks in an Inspection Document or any individual task as selected.

3. The end of the task will be denoted with an ”end of task” message.

MAINTENANCE DOCUMENTATION

1. Cessna recommended inspection program is designed to be easily tracked using

CESCOM/CAMP. CAMP is the exclusive factory authorized maintenance tracking system
provider for Cessna. CAMP provides maintenance tracking services to over 12,000 business
aircraft worldwide with very high customer satisfaction. The CESCOM/CAMP service will offer
you the best service in the industry and the team is fully staffed for all of your maintenance
management needs.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS

1. The Cessna recommended program is part of the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness
(ICA). The Cessna Model 525 Maintenance Manual, Illustrated Parts Catalog, Wiring Diagrams,
Structural Repair Manual and Supplier Manuals are all part of ICA. Team CJ is available to
answer questions you may encounter and clarify the ICA.

2. Instructions for Continued Airworthiness are included with new aircraft during the warranty
period. Regulations require that all work performed on your airplane is accomplished in
accordance with the current published ICA or as supplemented by a regulatory approved
modification such as a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC).

STC INSTALLATIONS

1. Inspection requirements for non-Cessna STC installations are not included in the Cessna Model
525 Maintenance Manual. When a non-Cessna STC installation is incorporated on the airplane,
ICA affected by the installation must be maintained in accordance with the ICA published by the
STC owner. Since STC installations may change system interfaces, operating characteristics
and component loads or stresses on adjacent structures, Cessna provided ICA may not be valid
for airplanes with STC installations.
