2009 Dassault Falcon 2000EX EASy II

The Dassault Falcon 2000 series is a wide-body, twin-engine business jet that delivers large-cabin comfort with midsize-jet economics. The original Falcon 2000 (1995-2004), powered by two GE CF700-2D-2 engines, was succeeded by the Falcon 2000EX (PW308C engines, 4,000 nm range), Falcon 2000DX (shorter range, lower price), Falcon 2000LX (winglets, 4,000 nm range), and the current Falcon 2000LXS (4,000 nm range, steep-approach capability down to 2.9 degrees). Approximately 600 Falcon 2000-series aircraft have been delivered since 1995. What makes the Falcon 2000 special. The Falcon 2000 cabin is 6 feet 2 inches wide and 6 feet 2 inches tall — wider and taller than a Hawker 800 or Citation XLS. The flat floor and 8-12 seat configuration accommodate serious business travel. The advanced wing design (including leading-edge slats on LX/LXS models) provides outstanding short-field performance — the 2000LXS lands in 2,260 feet, accessing airports that most jets in its class cannot reach. This Dassault hallmark of airport accessibility distinguishes the Falcon from competitors. Key comparison. The Falcon 2000LXS competes with the Cessna Citation Latitude, Embraer Praetor 500, and Bombardier Challenger 350. It offers a wider cabin than the Latitude, better short-field performance than all three, and lower fuel burn than the Challenger. The trade-off is a slightly higher maintenance cost due to the smaller Dassault service network versus Textron or Bombardier. Buying advice. Pratt and Whitney PW308C engines are reliable and efficient. Verify engine program enrollment (PW Eagle or JSSI). Dassault's EASy cockpit (Honeywell Primus Epic) requires current software loads for full functionality. Check for leading edge slat system condition (LX/LXS models), thrust reverser functionality, and APU serviceability. Scheduled maintenance intervals are well-documented but heavy checks (4C, 8C) can exceed $500,000. Market. Falcon 2000: $1.5M-$4M. Falcon 2000EX EASy: $4M-$8M. Falcon 2000LX: $8M-$14M.
