Dassault Falcon 20F-5 Aircraft

← Dassault Falcon 20 family

The Dassault Falcon 20 is a classic early business jet for buyers drawn to Falcon heritage and legacy jet capability, but it should be approached as a specialist aircraft rather than a low-cost modern jet. Its value is tied to engine status, inspections, avionics compliance, parts support, and whether the buyer has a realistic operating plan. Compared with a Falcon 10, the Falcon 20 is larger and more classic midsize; compared with newer light/midsize jets, it is far more support-sensitive.

Frequently Asked Questions — Dassault Falcon 20F-5

Is the Dassault Falcon 20F-5 still a usable jet?
The Falcon 20F-5 (1970s-era) is one of the cheapest jets available at $200-500K. The GE CF700 engines are simple and reliable but fuel-hungry (250+ gph). Range is limited to about 2,000 nm. The cabin seats 8-10 in a reasonable space. Most are being retired or converted to cargo/special missions. Only buy if you have access to a Falcon-experienced MRO and accept aging-aircraft maintenance costs.
What are the maintenance realities of a 50-year-old Falcon 20?
Corrosion is the primary structural concern. CF700 engine parts are available but overhauls are expensive. The original Collins avionics are obsolete — budget $500K+ for a panel upgrade. The Falcon 20 was built to robust French military standards and airframes are durable. But annual maintenance budgets of $200-400K on a $300K aircraft make the economics questionable for most operators.
