Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N900VC is a 1992-built Dassault Falcon 900B, serial 121, manufactured by Dassault Aviation. The airframe is recorded as owned by FALCON-121 LLC, an LLC based in Salem, OR, US, and is operating on a United States registration. Registered to FALCON-121 LLC upon its most recent documented change of ownership, the airframe’s public valuation is listed at $6,000,000, which serves as an indicator of condition and market positioning for a early-1990s tri-jet executive transport. No additional notable registry actions or multiple-operator histories are published for this airframe in the supplied data.
This specific Falcon 900B is outfitted in a typical 12-seat executive cabin with a forward galley and an enclosed aft lavatory, reflecting a configuration optimized for corporate transport and long overwater legs within its 4,000 nm range. Operated from a U.S. home base associated with its Salem, Oregon ownership, the airframe’s mission profile would typically include transcontinental and offshore business travel at a cruise speed of 450 knots and cruise altitudes approaching its 51,000 ft ceiling. Avionics fit and specific maintenance records for this individual aircraft are not published within the supplied data; maintenance considerations for the model generally emphasize tri-engine systems and aging-airframe checks pertinent to early-1990s production examples.
The Dassault Falcon 900B occupies the mid-to-large cabin long-range executive jet niche as a three-engine business jet with intercontinental capability and high-altitude performance. Competing types in its era include other long-range bizjets, where the Falcon’s tri-jet layout and ceiling of 51,000 ft distinguish operational flexibility and redundancy. Buyer and charter demand for airframes of this vintage is influenced by overall condition, avionics modernization, and the cost of maintaining three engines; the listed value of $6,000,000 for this specific airframe reflects those resale and upkeep considerations for a 1992-built example.
