N874VT

The airframe bearing tail number N874VT is a 1997-built Dassault Falcon 900B, serial number 161, registered in the United States. The aircraft is owned by GOLDEN GOAT LLC, an LLC based in Southern Pines, NC, US, and is listed on the US registry under that ownership. As a late-1990s Falcon 900B, this airframe combines the tri-jet layout typical of the model with a long service life; its listed market value is $7,695,000, reflecting airframe age, equipment fit and market conditions. Registration and ownership entries indicate operation by a private LLC rather than a commercial operator, and no other registry actions are published for this specific serial in the supplied data.

The cabin of this airframe is described in a typical 12-place executive configuration, providing seating for up to 12 passengers in an executive layout consistent with corporate and long-range business missions. Operated from its owner’s base in Southern Pines, NC, the airframe’s performance—particularly a long-range capability of 4,000 nm and high cruise speed of 510 kts—supports transcontinental missions and non-stop regional international trips common to fractional, corporate, or owner-flown use. Avionics fit and specific interior amenities are not published in the supplied data; maintenance considerations for this aircraft would follow Falcon 900B tri-jet requirements and the Honeywell TFE731-5BR engine program.

The Dassault Falcon 900B occupies a performance niche as a long-range, tri-engine corporate jet, offering redundancy and high-altitude cruise to 51,000 ft, which benefits overflight and weather-avoidance profiles. Competing models in its era include long-range midsize and large-cabin business jets; demand from private owners and charter operators often hinges on cabin size, range, and operating economics for aircraft like this 1997 airframe. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific unit center on age, systems upgrades, and the economics of supporting three TFE731 engines versus twin-engine alternatives, factors that are reflected in the stated value of $7,695,000.
