This airframe, registered as N978PW, is a 2005-built Dassault Falcon 900EX with manufacturer serial number 155. It is recorded as owned by TAS CORP LLC, a corporation based in Wilmington, DE, US, and is operated in the US civil registry.

This specific Falcon 900EX airframe is registered for up to 21 seats while typical executive layouts accommodate 8–12 passengers, indicating flexibility between high-density transport and executive VIP mission fits. The aircraft is fitted with the Dassault EASy avionics suite, supporting advanced flight management and cockpit integration for extended-range operations. With a long-range capability of 4,500 nm and a cruise speed near 430 kts, the airframe is suitable for transcontinental and transoceanic point-to-point missions commonly flown by corporate operators based in the United States. Maintenance considerations for this airframe follow standard Falcon 900EX programs, including attention to its three Honeywell TFE731-60-1C powerplants and systems unique to the EX variant.

The Dassault Falcon 900EX family occupies a performance niche as a long-range, tri-jet corporate transport offering high-altitude cruise to 51,000 ft and comfortable intercontinental range. Competing models in its era included large-cabin, long-range business jets from other manufacturers, with buyer and charter demand driven by range, cabin flexibility, and reliability. For this airframe, factors such as engine configuration, EASy avionics fit, and the registered seating capacity influence maintenance scheduling and resale considerations relevant to corporate operators and fractional/charter market participants.
