N653FJ

This article covers airframe N653FJ, a Dassault Falcon 10 built in 1977 with serial number 110. The jet is registered in the United States and is owned by DWTS LLC, listed with a Powder Springs, Georgia, US address; no other operators are documented. Registry information and valuation indicate the airframe is an older executive jet with an estimated market value of $255,000, reflecting its age and typical retrofit/maintenance status for Dassault Falcons of this vintage. No additional ownership transfers or notable registry actions are recorded in the supplied data.

Airframe N653FJ is configured in an executive cabin layout and is typically arranged for 7–11 seats depending on interior refit choices; the supplied entry lists 11 seats as a maximum seating figure. Avionics on Falcon 10 examples of this era commonly include various Collins-era suites, and many airframes receive dual Collins comm/nav/flight director retrofits — the supplied data notes such installations are reported on Falcon 10 examples. Typical mission profiles for this airframe class include short- to medium-range executive transport within the aircraft’s 1,520 nm range and cruise at approximately 430 kts, operating from the owner/operator base in Powder Springs, GA when flown by the registered owner. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe are consistent with older-model twins: engine and avionics retrofit histories strongly influence operating readiness and market value.

The Dassault Falcon 10 family occupies the light-cabin business-jet niche, offering transcontinental point-to-point capability within its 1,520 nm range and a high-altitude ceiling of 45,000 ft. Competitors historically include other light business jets with similar cruise speeds and short-field performance; buyer or charter demand for an individual airframe such as N653FJ is shaped heavily by its avionics, interior refit, and maintenance records. Resale considerations for a 1977 Falcon 10 with serial 110 include the cost of modern avionics upgrades, engine life remaining on Garrett TFE731 powerplants, and the modest market valuation noted at $255,000.
