Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N278QS, is a Dassault Falcon 2000 built in 1999 with serial number 77. It is owned by Marquis Jet Holdings Inc (c/o NetJets Sales Inc), a corporate owner based in the USA, and carries a United States registration. The type is a fixed-wing multi-engine business jet powered by twin turbofans; specific registry actions and historical valuation or condition reports are not published. Operated under corporate ownership managed by NetJets sales custody arrangements, the aircraft is commonly associated with fractional ownership and charter operations in North America.

The airframe is typically outfitted in a 14-place executive layout (typical for type listings), reflecting a cabin configured for business and corporate transport rather than high-density seating. With a 3,052 nm range and a cruise speed of 479 kts, its mission profile is centered on medium- to long-range point-to-point executive flights, regional transcontinental hops, and fractional or on-demand charter services consistent with corporate ownership. Maintenance considerations align with twin-engine medium-cabin business jet practices for airframes of the 1999 build year, and operator logistics are coordinated through the owner’s U.S. corporate structure. Avionics and interior fit vary by operator configuration; specific avionics fit for this serial is not published.

The Dassault Falcon 2000 family occupies the mid-size, long-range business jet niche, offering transcontinental performance and a relatively high service ceiling for its class as reflected by this airframe’s 47,000 ft capability. Competing models typically include other mid-size twins offering similar range and cruise speeds; buyer and charter demand tends to favor airframes with strong fractional ownership backing such as this one. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 1999-build Falcon 2000 include component life limits, engine shop visit history, and interior refurbishment status, specific to each airframe and not published for this serial.
