Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing registration N40LB is a 2013-built Dassault Falcon 900LX, serial number 272, registered in the US and listed in corporate hands. This airframe is owned by FIRST PREMIER CORP, a corporation based in Sioux Falls, SD, US, which serves as the operator and home base for the jet.

The cabin of this specific Falcon 900LX is outfitted in a 14-passenger executive configuration with a forward four-place club, a mid four-place conference group, and an aft four-place divan opposite two-place seating, supporting executive transport and group mission profiles. Avionics aboard the airframe are the EASy II Flight Deck with Honeywell Primus EPIC (EASy II), enabling advanced flight management, enhanced situational awareness, and integration suited to long-range corporate operations. Typical missions for this configuration include transcontinental and transoceanic executive transport within the aircraft’s published 4,750 nm range and cruise speeds near 447 knots; operations are frequently staged from the owner’s Sioux Falls, SD base. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect three-engine TFE731 series support requirements and the EASy II avionics lifecycle, with periodic checks aligned to corporate flight department schedules.
The Dassault Falcon 900LX sits in the long-range, large-cabin trijet niche, offering high cruise speeds, a 51,000 ft service ceiling, and transcontinental capability that appeals to corporate and fractional operators. Competitors in the market niche include long-range large-cabin twins and other trijets, with buyer demand driven by cabin layout flexibility and range-performance balance; this airframe’s 14-seat executive interior underscores charter or corporate transport utility. Resale and maintenance considerations for this 2013-built airframe center on engine programs for the Honeywell TFE731-60-1C units, EASy II avionics support, and prevailing market values reflected in the listed $21,995,000 estimate.
