N90YC

This entry documents the specific Dassault Falcon 900EX airframe bearing tail number N90YC, a 2010-build with manufacturer serial 250. The airframe is registered in the United States and is owned by AMERICAN CRUISE LINES INC of Guilford, Connecticut, which serves as the operator/home base noted in registry listings. The aircraft is a corporate-registered, fixed-wing multi-engine transport example of the Falcon 900EX family; publicly cited valuation for this airframe is $16,000,000 and registry entries list a 21-seat transport configuration under FAA records.

The aircraft is listed with a 21-seat transport configuration in FAA documentation, though typical executive reconfigurations of this model are commonly 12–14 seats when outfitted for corporate transport. Avionics fit for the airframe is reported as the Honeywell Primus 2000 / EASy suite common to 900EX examples, with operator-installed communications such as Aircell Axxess II reported on sale or listing information. Operationally, this airframe supports long-range business or group transport missions consistent with its 4,500 nm range and high-altitude capability to 51,000 ft, and its 21-seat layout suggests use for higher-density passenger positioning or company transport rather than a typical executive interior. Maintenance and outfitting considerations follow the Falcon 900EX baseline systems and the installed avionics/comm options noted for operator use.

The Dassault Falcon 900EX family occupies the long-range, large-cabin trijet niche within business aviation, offering transcontinental and intercontinental mission capability matched to its 447 kts cruise and 4,500 nm range. Comparable buyer demand and charter interest focus on reliability, cabin flexibility, and long-range performance; typical competitors historically include long-range twin and trijet business jets. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe reflect its 2010 build year, the three Honeywell TFE731-60 engines common to the type, and market valuations in the multi-million‑dollar band as reflected by the $16,000,000 listed value.
