The Falcon 900EX is the extended-range version of Dassault’s three-engine heavy jet, and out of Los Angeles it does something very few aircraft manage: twelve to fourteen passengers, 4,500 nautical miles, and short-field manners.
Dassault fitted the Falcon 900 with more fuel and upgraded Honeywell TFE731-60 engines to create the 900EX. Twelve to fourteen seats, 474 knots and 4,500 nautical miles of range on the same three-engine wide-cabin layout. Full specifications for the Dassault Falcon 900EX are published by Dassault Falcon.

Why the Dassault Falcon 900EX Fits Los Angeles
Fourteen seats going 4,500 nautical miles from Los Angeles covers New York, Miami, Central America and much of northern South America nonstop with a working payload, and it can do that from runways a Gulfstream IV would decline.
The third engine is why this aircraft keeps coming up for long overwater routing out of Southern California. What any given trip actually requires is set by the operator’s approvals and the rules they fly under, so we put the specific routing to them rather than answering from the engine count.
It is the value entry into the long-range end of the heavy category. Older than a 900LX and priced accordingly, with the same cabin and most of the range.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates; reports may be provided on request.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
