Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N1898B, is a 2017-production Dassault Falcon 8X with manufacturer's serial number 433. The airframe is recorded as owned by U S BANK NA TRUSTEE, a corporation based in Hartford, CT, US, a trustee-style ownership that suggests financial or leasing arrangements rather than direct private ownership. The type has a current market valuation listed at $45,400,000, and the record indicates operation under a United States registration. No additional operator or base changes are published beyond the trustee ownership entry.
The cabin of this specific Falcon 8X is fitted in a VIP executive layout with a single-class 11-seat configuration, reflecting an executive transport mission profile oriented toward business or high-end charter use. Avionics are installed as the 3rd Generation EASy (Honeywell Primus Epic) suite with the optional FalconEye combined vision system, supporting enhanced situational awareness and precision operations. Typical use for this configuration would encompass long-range intercontinental sectors enabled by the 6,450 nm range and high-altitude cruise capability to 51,000 ft, although precise operator routing and base are not published. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with tri-engine PW307D program support and VIP interior upkeep under trustee ownership arrangements.
The Dassault Falcon 8X represented by N1898B occupies the long-range, large-cabin business jet niche within Dassault’s Falcon family, emphasizing transoceanic reach and executive comfort. With three PW307D engines and the listed performance figures, it competes in the marketplace against other ultra-long-range business jets targeting high-end corporate and charter buyers. Demand drivers include cabin flexibility and avionics like the 3rd Generation EASy, while resale and maintenance considerations reflect the aircraft’s complexity, VIP interior condition, and the trustee ownership status that can affect transfer and financing dynamics.
