Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N940CL, is a Dassault Falcon 900EX built in 1998 with serial number 031. The aircraft is recorded as owned by DFN26PA LLC, an LLC based in Plymouth, MA, US, and is registered in the US civil registry; registry records note a 21‑seat configuration. The airframe’s listed market value is $5,846,032, reflecting its late‑1990s build vintage, tri‑engine layout and long‑range capability. Notable registry actions are limited to the available ownership and configuration records on file.
The airframe is configured in a 21‑seat cabin arrangement according to registry records, supporting high‑density executive transport or charter missions that prioritize passenger capacity alongside long‑range capability. Photographic and archival captions indicate the airframe is likely fitted with Dassault EASy avionics, which would modernize flightdeck situational awareness and crew workload for a 1998 build. Based in Plymouth, MA, under ownership of DFN26PA LLC, the Falcon 900EX’s 4,500 nm range and 450 kt cruise make it suitable for transcontinental and transoceanic point‑to‑point missions typical of corporate and charter operations. Maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include tri‑engine inspection regimes and support for Honeywell TFE731-60-1C powerplants, plus avionics support if the EASy fit is confirmed.
As a member of the Falcon 900EX family, this airframe occupies a niche for long‑range, high‑capacity, tri‑jet business aviation, combining elevated cruise speed and high service ceiling for efficient long‑haul routing. The airframe’s 1998 vintage and recorded value of $5,846,032 reflect typical market factors for older long‑range business jets—airframe hours, engine life, avionics fitment and configuration all affect buyer and charter demand. Resale and maintenance considerations for this example center on sustaining three‑engine maintenance programs, verifying EASy avionics integration, and the appeal of a 21‑seat layout to operators seeking higher passenger density on long‑range missions.
