Heavy JetsFor sale & acquisition
Independent broker representation for buyers and sellers of heavy jets. Anchored by the Dassault Falcon 8X.
01 · Overview
Why buy or sell a heavy jet
Heavy jets are the working long-haul aircraft of business aviation. Ten-to-sixteen passenger cabins with true berthing space, hot galleys, and enclosed aft lavatories with showers on many airframes. Ranges of 5,000–6,500 nm cover most intercontinental pairs non-stop. Buyers get airline-scale cabins at private-jet flexibility; sellers benefit from durable global demand — particularly for tri-jet Falcons and the Gulfstream 450/550 fleet.
