Model & Market Context
This entry documents airframe N909VJ, a production Dassault Falcon 50 completed in 1981 with manufacturer serial number 69. The airframe is recorded on the U.S. registry and is owned by WC AVIATION LLC, a corporation based in Gypsum / Centennial, CO, US; this ownership is the primary documented operator/home-base association for this airframe. There are no additional publicized changes of registry or operators in the supplied data; the aircraft is valued at $2,000,000, reflecting its age and configuration.
The cabin of this Falcon 50 is presented in a typical 8–10 passenger executive layout; examples for this airframe show a four-place forward club, mid-cabin seating and an aft divan, with a forward galley and aft lavatory. With certified seating for 9, the aircraft is commonly employed in long-range executive transport missions consistent with its 3,130 nm range and 468 kt cruise capability, operating from its owner’s bases in Colorado as documented. Maintenance considerations for this airframe reflect the three-engine TFE731 series installation and the vintage of the build year 1981, with owner-operated logistics and value assessment tied to documented condition and completion history.
The Dassault Falcon 50 airframe represented here, Dassault Falcon 50, occupies a mid-size, long-range executive jet niche within the 1970s–1980s tri-jet market, offering transcontinental capability to FL490 (49,000 ft) with three Honeywell TFE731 powerplants. Competing models in that era and later include twin- and tri-engine business jets targeting similar missions; buyers and charter operators evaluate this specific airframe on factors such as engine type (TFE731-3 series), range, cabin layout, and the documented valuation of $2,000,000, all affecting maintenance planning and resale prospects.
