N900CQ

This airframe, registered as N900CQ, is a 1998-built Dassault Falcon 900EX, serial number 30, and appears on U.S. registry under corporate ownership. Owned by CEQUEL III LLC, an LLC based in Saint Louis, MO, US, the Falcon has remained in business-aviation service since delivery and shows the registry entry listing a seating capability up to 21 seats. Recorded valuation for this specific airframe is $9,466,760, reflecting age, equipment options, and typical market depreciation for late-1990s long-range trijets. Maintenance and records status are not published here beyond standard factory configuration and typical upgrade paths noted for the model.

The cabin of this Falcon 900EX is a three-zone executive layout, and while typical layouts for the model accommodate 10–16 executive seats, the registry for this airframe lists configurations up to 21 seats—indicating flexibility for higher-density executive or combi use. Avionics for the model commonly start with Honeywell Primus 2000 installations with Honeywell EASy as a common upgrade path, and this airframe reflects that typical options trajectory. Typical missions for this type and this specific equipment set include transcontinental and intercontinental executive transport within ranges around 4,500 nm, operating from the owner/operator base in Saint Louis for corporate and charter movements. Maintenance considerations follow trijet-specific schedules for three-engine systems and TFE731-60 engine support.

The Dassault Falcon 900EX family occupies the long-range, three-engine business jet niche, valued for transoceanic range, cabin volume, and high-altitude performance to 51,000 ft. Competing models include large-cabin twins and other long-range trijets from the same era; buyers seek the Falcon for its combination of range (4,500 nm) and proven Falcon systems. Resale and upkeep considerations center on engine-shop visit histories for the Honeywell TFE731-60s, avionics upgrade history (Primus 2000 to EASy), and cabin reconfiguration potential given the registry allowance up to 21 seats.
