Events are NTSB accidents and incidents matched to Cessna 525 airframes by serial number or N-number; counts are approximate, because older events can't always be matched. The yearly rate divides NTSB events from 2016 to 2025 by the number of registered Cessna 525 aircraft in each of those years. Not adjusted for hours flown: training aircraft fly far more than most.

Buyer checklist

8 ADs published since 1998 may apply to the Cessna 525; recurring ADs need to be checked at each inspection. 19 NTSB events since 1982 involve Cessna 525 airframes; from 2016 to 2025, about 1.5 a year per 1,000 registered aircraft. Operators and repair stations filed 90 service difficulty reports on Cessna 525 airframes since 1995. Check each aircraft's own record before you buy.

  • Read the logbooks for the airframe, engine and propeller, start to finish.
  • Check AD compliance records against the ADs that may apply.
  • Look for damage history and Form 337 major repairs and alterations.
  • Have an independent A&P or IA do a pre-buy inspection.
  • Run a title search and use escrow for the payment.
