N46HB

The airframe bearing registration N46HB is a 1988 build Dassault Mystère Falcon 900, manufacturer Dassault-Breguet, serial number 42. The airframe is listed as owned by SUNSHINING AVIATION LLC, based in Wilmington, DE, US, and appears in U.S. civil registry records under that corporate owner. No public record of multiple prior owners or major registry transfers is published in the supplied data; the available listing emphasizes the current corporate ownership and U.S. registration. The last reported valuation for this specific airframe is $2,443,552, which serves as a condition and market snapshot for this late-1980s three-engine Falcon.

This airframe is configured in a 12-place executive layout consistent with business and corporate transport missions. Reported avionics elements include Honeywell suite items such as KHF-1050 HF, Honeywell weather radar, and TR-866B VHF; a full, detailed avionics fitment or any modification history is not available in the public listing. Typical operation profiles for this configuration would emphasize long-range transcontinental or intercontinental executive missions leveraging the 4,000 nm range and high-speed cruise of 444 kts, with operations staged from the owner’s base in Wilmington, DE, US. Maintenance considerations for this specific Falcon include three-engine inspection regimes and TFE731 series engine support, as implied by the installed 3× Honeywell TFE731-5BR-1C powerplants.

The Dassault Mystère Falcon 900 family occupies the long-range, mid-to-large cabin corporate jet niche, offering three-engine redundancy combined with high cruise speed and a 51,000 ft service ceiling. In the late-1980s build cohort, buyers and charter operators sought the Falcon 900 for transoceanic flexibility and cabin comfort, attributes reflected in this 12-seat executive arrangement. Resale and maintenance attention for this airframe hinge on records, engine cycles, and avionics updates; the reported value of $2,443,552 for a 1988 airframe underscores market sensitivity to equipment fit, refurbishment, and total time on airframe and engines.
