The Dassault Falcon 2000 is a heavy jet manufactured by Dassault Aviation, produced from 1995-2007. Classified as a large-cabin aircraft, the Dassault Falcon 2000 carries up to 12 passengers at a maximum cruise speed of 481 knots with a range of 3,000 nautical miles — placing it squarely in the charter and corporate flight segment for cross-country domestic missions.
The Jet Finder's aircraft directory currently tracks 52 active Dassault Falcon 2000 registrations in the FAA Aircraft Registry. Each tail number page below provides individual registration data, serial numbers, ownership records, and specification details sourced from official FAA documentation.
Performance & Powerplant
Power comes from 2x GE CF34-3B1, each producing 8,729 lbs of thrust. Maximum cruise speed reaches 481 knots (Mach 0.862), with a long-range cruise of 459 kts for missions where fuel efficiency matters more than speed. The service ceiling of 47,000 feet puts the Dassault Falcon 2000 well above commercial traffic corridors, and a takeoff distance of 4,675 ft keeps smaller airfields accessible.
With 3,000 nautical miles of range under standard reserves, the Dassault Falcon 2000 handles coast-to-coast domestic flights and select Caribbean or Central American destinations. Typical hourly operating costs range from $3,800-$5,200 per flight hour.
Cabin & Interior
The Dassault Falcon 2000 cabin measures 26.2 ft long, 7.7 ft wide, and 6.2 ft tall. Standard configurations seat up to 12 passengers, with 131 cu ft of externally accessible baggage capacity. The Honeywell Primus 2000/EASy avionics suite provides full IFR certification for all-weather operations.
Evolution & Market Position
The 2000LXS extends range to 4,000 NM with PW308C engines. For those considering acquisition or evaluating options to sell, understanding the transition between variants is essential for informed decision-making. Well-maintained Dassault Falcon 2000 aircraft remain sought after in the pre-owned market, with strong demand from both private owners and charter operators.
