Operational Context

Dassault Falcon 900EX — long-range trijet business jet

The Falcon 900EX first flew in 1996 and entered service in 1997. It incorporated aerodynamic refinements and updated flight systems compared with earlier variants. The three-engine layout supports operations from shorter runways.

Three Honeywell TFE731 turbofan engines producing approximately 5,000 pounds of thrust (22 kN) each power the aircraft. Cruise speed approaches Mach 0.84. Maximum takeoff weight exceeds 49,000 pounds (22,226 kg), with range near 4,500 nautical miles (8,334 km).

The 900EX became a popular long-range corporate platform. Its flexibility in airport access distinguished it from twin-engine competitors. The aircraft remains active in global business aviation fleets.
