Model & Market Context

This airframe, registered as N88GD, is a 1996-built Dassault Falcon 2000 with manufacturer's serial number 30. The aircraft is recorded as owned by NBFTM LLC, a limited liability company based in Saint Paul, MN, US, and is registered in the US. Historical notes for this specific airframe include its mid-1990s build and continued private/owner-operator use; no other ownership transfers or notable incidents are published in the provided data. Valuation information lists the aircraft at $3,800,000, reflecting market posture for an early Falcon 2000 example with operator-specific fittings.

This Falcon 2000 is typically configured in a corporate executive layout with a typical 8–10 passenger cabin arrangement noted for the early series (forward galley, aft lavatory), although this specific airframe lists 14 seats and may reflect operator-specific reconfiguration or supplemental seating for non-standard missions. Avionics are identified as the Collins Pro Line suite, typical for early Falcon 2000s, with the caveat that the operator may have modified or upgraded systems since delivery. Operationally, the aircraft’s 2,841 nm range and 459 kts cruise speed align it with medium- to long-range corporate missions flown from its Saint Paul, Minnesota base, supporting transcontinental and select near-oceanic sectors. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would follow standard Falcon 2000 airframe and CFE 738-series engine practices, with any upgrades or modifications being operator-specific.

The Dassault Falcon 2000 family occupies the midsize twinjet executive market niche, offering transcontinental capability and cabin comfort relative to light jets. With two CFE 738-1-1B engines producing 5,918 lbf each and a 47,000 ft ceiling, the type competes with contemporary midsize business jets for owner-operators and charter operators seeking range combined with runway performance. Early-series examples like this 1996 serial 30 often attract buyers looking for value through refurbishment or avionics upgrades; resale and maintenance profiles depend heavily on engine program status, interior condition, and any Collins Pro Line avionics modernization conducted by the operator.
