Model & Market Context

This entry describes airframe N520AW, a Dassault-built business jet completed in 1981 bearing serial number 453 and registered in the US. The airframe is a production example of the Dassault Mystère-Falcon 20F-5 and is currently owned by GG FLIGHT LLC, an Ohio-based limited liability company located in Findlay, OH, US. Acquisition and recent registry maintenance by GG FLIGHT LLC define the most notable ownership action on record for this airframe; valuation and condition assessments place it at approximately $1,200,000. Operationally categorized as a fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft, this specific airframe is configured and operated in line with corporate/operator usage typical to its class.

The subject airframe, configured with 2 seats, reflects a spartan cockpit-forward layout rather than a multi-passenger executive cabin, indicating use concentrated on crewed ferry, training, or specific two-person operational missions rather than typical multi-passenger charter. Avionics fit for this serial is not published here; however, the powerplant combination of two TFE731-5BR-2C engines supports typical regional/ferry sectors consistent with its maximum cruise of 436 kts and a range of 2,250 nm, enabling transcontinental missions within continental US and offshore legs from its home base in Findlay, OH. Maintenance considerations for this airframe align with older-generation Falcon-series requirements, including focused attention on aging airframe systems and engine time-between-overhaul planning.

The Dassault Mystère-Falcon 20F-5 sits within a family known for early corporate jet performance and rugged multi-role utility. With a service ceiling of 42,000 ft and robust TFE731 powerplants, the model competes historically with small-to-medium business jets of its era; contemporary buyers often compare lifecycle costs against newer light-to-midsize jets. Resale and maintenance considerations for a 1981 serial 453 example center on airframe hours, avionics modernization costs, and the limited market for two-seat configurations, factors that contribute to the recorded approximate market valuation of $1,200,000.
