Model & Market Context

The aircraft with tail number N600BS is a 2014-built Dassault Falcon 900EX, serial 285, manufactured by Dassault Aviation. It is registered in the US and is owned by Sonic Automotive Inc, a corporation based in Charlotte, NC, US, which is the documented operator/home base for this airframe. The jet’s registry entry reflects corporate ownership and a 2014 build year; no other ownership transfers or historical incidents are published for this specific airframe. Valuation records list the airframe at approximately $11,000,000, consistent with its age, model specification, and configuration.

This Falcon 900EX airframe is configured to accommodate 21 seats, suggesting a flexible cabin layout capable of blending passenger seating and potential auxiliary arrangements for corporate or charter missions. Typical mission profiles for the airframe’s performance envelope include long-range transcontinental and transoceanic flights enabled by its 4,500 nm range and high-altitude capability to 51,000 ft, with cruise speeds near 470 kts. Operated from its owner’s base in Charlotte, NC, US, the aircraft’s three-engine Honeywell TFE731 powerplant installation entails established maintenance regimes for tri-engine Falcons, and the particular engine model delivers 4,525 lbf of thrust per unit. Specific avionics fit and bespoke cabin amenities for this serial are not published.

The Dassault Falcon 900EX family occupies a niche for long-range, three-engine business jets providing transcontinental and intercontinental capability with high cruise speed and elevated service ceilings. In the market, the Falcon 900EX competes with other long-range midsize to large-cabin business jets; buyer and charter demand historically favor its range, payload flexibility, and tri-engine safety margins. For this airframe—serial 285, built in 2014 and valued at $11,000,000—resale considerations will reflect maintenance status of the Honeywell TFE731-60-1C engines, total time and cycles, and the aircraft’s interior/avionics specification as documented by the owner/operator.
