N57MK

This airframe, registered as N57MK, is a 1989-built Dassault Falcon 50, constructor serial 197. The aircraft is owned by ICE AGE AVIATION LLC of Greensboro, NC, US, which serves as the operator/home base for this registration; the registration is listed as US. Notable registry and valuation highlights include a documented market value of $1,486,215, reflective of its vintage airframe and equipment standard for late‑1980s Falcon 50s.

The cabin on this specific Falcon 50 is fitted with a forward galley and aft lavatory and conforms to a typical executive layout: a four‑place forward club and a two‑place club opposite a divan, accommodating 8–10 pax in executive configuration but with seating listed as 10. Avionics aboard the airframe are a Collins ProLine‑style fit with dual FMS (UNS‑1), Honeywell EGPWS (Mark V variants noted) and TCAS II, supporting modern navigation and terrain awareness capability for its class. Typical mission profiles for this airframe type and fit include transcontinental and offshore business travel within its 3,084 nm range and cruise at 420 kts, operating from the owner/operator base in Greensboro, NC, US. Maintenance considerations reflect the aircraft’s age and three‑engine configuration, with component and engine support following TFE731‑series practices.

The Dassault Falcon 50 occupies a mid‑size, long‑range tri‑jet niche in business aviation, offering transoceanic capability relative to competitors of its era. Competing models historically include twin and tri‑jet business aircraft that balance long‑range performance with cabin comfort; demand for well‑equipped late‑1980s Falcon 50s remains among buyers seeking range at used‑aircraft price points. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe hinge on engine TFE731 series support, avionics upgrades such as the Collins ProLine‑style suite and EGPWS/TCAS II compliance, and the documented market valuation of $1,486,215.
