World low ~$5,750-$5,900/hr (Paramount Business Jets, Mercury Jets); high $12,000/flight-hour cited by The Jet Finder, capped at $9,500 for typical hourly. BR range inferred from Flapper's published general executive-jet hourly band (US$2,200 turboprop to US$11,000 large jet); no Falcon-50-specific BR hourly quote was published, so BR figures are category-level estimates, not a direct Falcon 50 quote.

Pre-owned base Falcon 50 (1980-1996 airframes; trijet, discontinued). Asking ranges: Controller $1.995M-$5.995M (avg $4.287M, skewed by upgraded airframes); Guardian Jet brochure ask $1.375M-$3.55M, typical $2.4625M; GlobalAir 1984 SN138 $2.45M (others 'make offer'); planephd PAPI estimate $1.45M (Mar 2026); Bolt Flight $1.5M-$3M; multiple brokers cite ~$2.5M pre-owned avg. Values legitimately fall below the generic super_midsize floor because the type is a 1976-2008 discontinued design.

Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.
Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

History
- 1976 - Único trijet do segmento super-midsize
Lançado em 1976, foi o primeiro Falcon trijet (3 motores). Configuração herdada da filosofia Dassault que prioriza redundância, três motores garantem operação em ETOPS estendido sobre oceanos e em condições hot-and-high. Mais de 350 unidades produzidas até 2008.
- 1976First flight
- 1979FAA certification
- 1996 - Falcon 50EX evoluiu em 1996
A versão 50EX trouxe motores TFE731-40 com 5% mais empuxo e FADEC, EFIS Collins Pro Line 4 e alcance ampliado para 3.450 nm. Mais de 100 unidades EX produzidas, hoje as mais valorizadas no mercado usado.
- 2000 - Aerolula, jato presidencial brasileiro
A FAB operou um Falcon 50 (matrícula PR-AAA, depois FAB 2580) entre 2000 e 2014 como aeronave do Presidente da República. Apelidado Aerolula durante o governo Lula, sobrevoou todo o Brasil em missões oficiais antes de ser substituído pelo Embraer Legacy 600.

Benefits
Operadores governamentais globais
Marinha Francesa (vigilância marítima Gardian 50), Força Aérea Sul-Africana, Italiana, Portuguesa e Iraquiana operam Falcon 50 em missões VIP e SAR. Confiabilidade de 99% comprovada em frotas militares.
Limitations
Custo de manutenção dos 3 motores
Operar 3 motores TFE731 implica em ciclos de overhaul triplicados. Cada hot section (~USD 200k) e overhaul completo (~USD 600k) multiplicam por 3, desvantagem de custo vs. concorrentes twin como Citation X ou Hawker 1000.
