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
- 1984First flight
- 1986FAA certification
- 1986 - Resposta francesa ao Gulfstream III no large-jet market
Lançado em 1984 e certificado em março de 1986, o Falcon 900 foi a resposta da Dassault ao domínio americano em large business jets (Gulfstream III/IV) e Challenger 600. Primeiro Dassault com cabine widebody verdadeiramente larga (2,34 m), referência que perdurou em toda família Falcon (2000, 7X, 8X). 3 motores TFE731 cada vez mais aceitos por reduzir consumo total vs. heavier 2-engine jets daquela época.
- 1996 - Substituído pelo Falcon 900EX em 1996
Após 165 unidades produzidas (Falcon 900 e 900B combinados), Dassault lançou em 1996 o Falcon 900EX, motores TFE731-60, range estendido para 4.750 nm e aviônica Honeywell Primus 2000. Linha 900 base descontinuada em 1999. Família 900 (incluindo 900EX, 900LX e 900DX) já ultrapassou 530 unidades totais, uma das mais bem-sucedidas Dassault.

Curiosities and highlights
Benefits
Cabine widebody 2,34 m herdada por toda família
Cabine de 1,88 m de altura por 2,34 m de largura introduzida pelo 900 tornou-se padrão Dassault para sempre, mantida no Falcon 2000 (1995), 7X (2007) e 8X (2016). Layout de 3 zonas em 10 m de cabin length permite forward club + mid four-place + aft divan. Pressurização 9,3 psi mantinha cabin altitude em ~6.500 ft a FL410 (referência da época, hoje superada pelo 8X com 3.900 ft).
Range 4.500 nm com 3 TFE731-5BR (versão 900B)
A versão Falcon 900B (1991-1999) trouxe motores TFE731-5BR de 4.750 lbf cada, ampliando range para 4.500 nm, capaz de Genebra-NYC, Paris-Dubai e São Paulo-Miami sem escala. Total thrust 14.250 lbf permitia take-off em pistas curtas (5.215 ft balanced field), vantagem clássica do trijet sobre Gulfstream G-IV (5.700 ft).

Limitations
Aviônica analógica original requer modernização cara
Os primeiros Falcon 900 saíram com SPZ-8000 analógico/EFIS original, exige retrofit de ADS-B Out, FANS-1/A, RVSM e idealmente upgrade glass cockpit Honeywell Primus Elite (~USD 800K-1,2M) para operar em airspace moderno (Europa, NAT HLA). Frota usada precisa due diligence rigorosa em compliance regulatório antes de aquisição.
Curiosities
Mesma fuselagem básica do Falcon 7X/8X
A airframe do Falcon 900, desenvolvida em meados dos anos 1980, serviu como base direta do Falcon 7X (2007) e 8X (2016) com fuselagem alongada e fly-by-wire. Cabine widebody 2,34 m, configuração trijet rear-engine e estrutura interna preservadas. Demonstra a longevidade do design Dassault e justifica o custo de desenvolvimento amortizado em 40 anos.
Mercado usado entry-point para large-jet
Falcon 900 base usado em 2024-2026 negocia entre USD 2,5M-6,5M dependendo de horas, engine status e avionics retrofit completo. Representa o ponto de entrada mais barato do segmento large widebody, comparável a um midsize novo em preço, mas com range, cabine e prestígio de heavy jet. Ideal para operadores que priorizam conforto sobre economia operacional.
