N917JC

This airframe, registered as N917JC, is a Dassault Falcon 7X manufactured by Dassault Aviation in 2011 and carrying serial number 162. The jet is owned by EXCELSIS LLC, a corporation based in Irvine, CA, US, and is registered in the US as a fixed-wing multi-engine aircraft. The registration reflects corporate ownership rather than an individual operator; no additional operator changes are published in the supplied data. The airframe is valued at $20,000,000, indicating market positioning for late-model, long-range large-cabin business jets.

The aircraft is fitted in an executive layout described as an Executive 11‑passenger configuration (2 crew + up to 11 pax reported for this registration), implying a large, long-range cabin suitable for transcontinental and intercontinental missions. The avionics fit is the Falcon EASy flight deck (Honeywell), supporting advanced flight-management, synthetic vision and integrated systems monitoring commonly used in high-end corporate operations. Typical missions for this airframe would exploit its 5,950 nm range and 529 kts cruise speed to perform non-stop long-haul point-to-point flights for corporate or fractional operations out of its owner’s home base in Irvine, CA, US. Maintenance considerations follow three-engine Falcon profiles with specific attention to PW307A engine support and Honeywell avionics updates as part of lifecycle servicing.

The Dassault Falcon 7X family occupies the long-range, large-cabin business jet niche, notable for tri-jet redundancy, high cruise speeds and steep-field performance relative to comparable twin-engine rivals. Competitors in the segment include other ultra-long-range business jets, but the 7X differentiates on three-engine certification benefits and its Falcon EASy integrated flight deck. Buyer and charter demand for a 2011 airframe with this equipment and a $20,000,000 valuation reflects a secondary-market balance between capability and age, with resale and maintenance considerations centered on engine shop visits, avionics service bulletins and cabin refurbishment cycles.
