Model & Market Context

This airframe, N97KS, is a 1987-built Dassault Falcon 50 with manufacturer serial number 175, manufactured by Dassault Aviation. The aircraft is registered in the US and is registered to WRM AVIATION LLC, an LLC based in Palm Beach Gardens, FL, US. The three‑engine Falcon 50 airframe is operated from that owner/operator location and has an assessed market valuation of $1,200,000. Registry and valuation highlights reflect an older, well‑traveled airframe with the typical configuration and range characteristics of late‑1980s Falcon 50s.

The aircraft is typically configured in an executive cabin layout for 8–10 passengers with a forward galley and an aft lavatory; the specific interior fit for this airframe is unknown. Avionics fit for this individual airframe is not published in the supplied data, so standard type‑specific systems should be assumed unless supplemental logs indicate upgrades. Typical missions for this Falcon 50 include medium‑long range executive transport and transcontinental flights within its 3,075 nm range and high‑speed cruise capability of 488 kts, operating from the owner/operator base in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Maintenance considerations for this airframe include three‑engine systems and the Honeywell TFE731‑3D engine commonality, which factor into operational scheduling and logbook review for continued airworthiness.

The Dassault Falcon 50 family occupies a performance niche as a mid‑size, long‑range trijet blending transoceanic capability with high cruise speed and elevated service ceiling (this airframe certified to 49,003 ft). Competitors historically include other long‑range business jets of the era; buyer and charter demand for late‑1980s Falcons is influenced by seating flexibility (10 seats typical), avionics upgrades, engine condition, and overall refurbishment status. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe include age, three‑engine maintenance complexity, and the indicated valuation of $1,200,000, which will be sensitive to logbook completeness and any unreported interior or avionics modifications.
