Request an ownership modelBuying a Dassault Falcon 900 Series
The Falcon 900 family spans nearly four decades, so the variant matters more than the model name: 900B, 900EX, 900EX EASy, 900DX and 900LX differ materially in range, avionics and residual behaviour. We identify the right variant for your mission, verify engine programme coverage across three engines, and confirm avionics mandate compliance before you commit to an inspection.
As of Q3 2026, asking prices run $3.5M–$26M; budget roughly $3,750 per flight hour of variable cost.
