Model & Market Context
The airframe, tail number N900HD, is a 2002-built Dassault Falcon 900EX, serial 103, registered in the United States. The jet is owned by NICAL AVIATION LLC, a corporation based in Austin, TX, US, and carries US registration. Registered to a corporate operator in Austin, Texas, the airframe is presented as a 12-passenger VIP-configured Falcon 900EX with a listed market value of $8,995,000. Condition highlights and detailed maintenance history are not published beyond the factory configuration and avionics retrofit package noted below.
The cabin is outfitted as a 12-passenger VIP interior featuring a forward four-place club, a mid-cabin conference group opposite a credenza, and an aft three-place divan plus a single seat, together with a forward crew lavatory, an aft lavatory, and a forward galley. Avionics are a Honeywell Primus Elite II installation, incorporating DU-875/DU-875 EFIS displays with HUD-capable HGS option and FANS/CPDLC capability, supporting extended-range oceanic operations and modern ATC datalink procedures. Typical mission profiles for this airframe focus on long-range corporate transport up to its 4,500 nm range and high-altitude cruise to FL510 at approximately 430 kts, operated from its corporate base in Austin, Texas. Maintenance and operational considerations are driven by the three-engine layout with Honeywell TFE731-60-1C powerplants and the avionics modernization that supports current airspace mandates.
The Dassault Falcon 900EX family occupies the long-range, three-engine VIP business jet niche, emphasizing transcontinental and intercontinental missions with steep climb and high-altitude capabilities. Competing models include large-cabin, long-range twins and other tri-jets; buyer demand often hinges on range, cabin layout versatility, and avionics maturity such as the Honeywell Primus Elite II fit on this airframe. Resale and maintenance considerations for N900HD will reflect the cost and logistics of tri-engine support, the desirability of the VIP 12-seat interior, and the avionics suite that enables contemporary oceanic and RVSM operations.
