HB-IGY Aircraft Overview
HB-IGY is a Dassault Falcon 900 registered in Switzerland with serial number 95.

The aircraft is associated with Privatair, registered through the FOCA.
Dassault Falcon 900 Market Position
The Falcon 900 is Dassault's trijet heavy jet, in production since 1986 across multiple variants. The three-engine configuration provides exceptional takeoff performance from short and high-altitude runways. Range varies from 3,800 to 4,750 nautical miles depending on variant. The Falcon 900LX remains in production.
Performance Profile
The Dassault Falcon 900 delivers 481-knot cruise speeds with a maximum range of 4,000 nautical miles under standard fuel reserves. That range covers most transcontinental routes nonstop and select transatlantic pairings with favorable winds. Power comes from 3x Honeywell TFE731-5AR/BR. The 51,000-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 900 accommodates up to 14 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.

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.
