Model & Market Context

This entry describes U.S.-registered business jet N9CU, a Dassault Falcon 900 built in 1987 with manufacturer's serial number 19. The airframe is owned by JANI KING INTERNATIONAL INC, a corporation based in Addison, TX, US, which serves as the operator/home base for the jet. Registry records list the aircraft as a United States-registered fixed-wing multi-engine airplane and value the type example at approximately $5,400,000 in its current market context. Condition highlights for this airframe reflect its early Falcon 900 series configuration and typical equipment fit for late-1980s production.

The cabin of this Falcon 900 is outfitted in a typical 12-place executive layout with a forward galley and forward and aft lavatories, supporting corporate transport and long-range point-to-point missions. Avionics aboard the airframe conform to the early-series fit, typically the Collins Pro Line II, which dictates equipment capabilities and upgrade paths relevant to maintenance and avionics modernization. With a service ceiling of 51,000 ft and a long-range capability of 3,970 nm, practical mission profiles for this airframe include transcontinental and overwater executive flights operating from its base in Addison, TX, US. Maintenance considerations for this specific jet center on legacy systems associated with late-1980s Falcons and the three-engine Garrett TFE731 propulsion package.

As a member of the Dassault Falcon 900 family, this airframe embodies the series’ long-range, high-cruise-speed niche, demonstrated by its 444 kts cruise and nearly 4,000 nm range. The three-engine configuration and 51,000 ft ceiling provide operational flexibility and performance that appeal to corporate buyers and charter operators seeking transcontinental capability. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe are influenced by its 1987 manufacture date, legacy Collins Pro Line II avionics, and the need for lifecycle support of Garrett TFE731-5AR engines, all factors reflected in the indicated $5,400,000 valuation.
