G-FRAS Aircraft Overview
G-FRAS is a Avions Marcel Dassault Dassault Falcon 2000 registered in United Kingdom with serial number 82. This heavy-cabin jet operates in the wide-body segment of business aviation, positioned between super-midsize platforms and ultra-long-range flagships. The aircraft is associated with Cobham Aviation Services, registered through the UK CAA. Manufactured in 1967, the aircraft has 59 years in service.
Dassault Falcon 2000 Market Position
The Falcon 2000 brought Dassault's build quality and handling characteristics to the heavy jet market in a twin-engine configuration. Delivered since 1995, the original variant offers 3,000 nautical miles of range. Its shorter fuselage compared to the Falcon 900 makes it more runway-flexible while maintaining Dassault's signature cabin finishing.
Performance Profile
The Dassault Falcon 2000 delivers 481-knot cruise speeds with a maximum range of 3,000 nautical miles under standard fuel reserves. That range covers most transcontinental routes nonstop and select transatlantic pairings with favorable winds. Power comes from 2x GE CF34-3B1. The 47,000-foot ceiling provides routing flexibility above airline corridors and most icing layers.
Mission Profile
Heavy jets are the workhorses of corporate flight departments and head-of-state operations. The Dassault Falcon 2000 accommodates up to 12 passengers in a cabin configured for meetings, rest, and extended travel. Baggage capacity and galley provisions support multi-day trips without the logistical constraints of smaller platforms.
Charter & Availability
G-FRAS is registered in United Kingdom under the UK CAA. Contact The Jet Finder to inquire about charter availability for this aircraft or similar Dassault Falcon 2000 platforms worldwide.
Insider Note
Heavy jets carry higher repositioning costs than midsize aircraft. If the aircraft is based far from your departure airport, a deadhead leg adds significant cost. Inquire about one-way availability or empty-leg positioning to reduce the total trip expense.
