N9TE

This article describes the specific airframe bearing tail number N9TE, a Dassault-built Falcon 50 produced in 1991 with serial number 204. The aircraft is registered in the US and is recorded as owned by ALLIANCE AVIATION GROUP LLC, an LLC based in Wilmington, DE, US; this ownership constitutes the primary known operator/home base relationship for the airframe. The airframe’s propulsion, seating configuration and range profile indicate it has been maintained in a role compatible with corporate and charter operations, and its listed market valuation is $2,538,333, which reflects its age and configuration.

The cabin layout for this specific Falcon 50 airframe is documented at 22 seats, a configuration more expansive than typical three‑engined midsize business jets and indicative of high-density corporate or commuter roles. Avionics fit is not itemized in the provided data, but the aircraft’s cruise speed of 420 kts and range of 3,075 nm support transregional missions and nonstop sectors commensurate with corporate and short‑haul charter use. Based from the owner’s location in Wilmington, DE, US, typical operations would include East Coast and trans‑continental U.S. segments as well as regional international hops. Maintenance considerations for this airframe would center on the three Honeywell TFE731‑3D powerplants and the aging‑airframe inspections appropriate for a 1991 build.

The Dassault Aviation Mystere‑Falcon 50 family occupies a performance niche as a three‑engine, transregional business jet offering high cruise altitudes (here 49,000 ft) and extended range relative to light jets. Competing models include other midsize and super‑midsize business jets, though the triple‑engine layout is a distinguishing characteristic. Buyer and charter demand for a 1991 Falcon 50 airframe tends to reflect factors such as overhaul status of the TFE731-3D engines, overall maintenance history, and the aircraft’s valuation at approximately $2,538,333, which guides resale and continuing maintenance economics.
