RADAR ESTIMATE
What N105SJ is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the Dassault Falcon 50 on its own yet, so this borrows the Bombardier Challenger 300 curve, scales it to N105SJ's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N105SJ
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, registered as N105SJ, is a Dassault Falcon 50 built in 1988 with manufacturer serial number 174 and produced by Dassault-Breguet / Dassault Aviation. The jet is currently owned by Flying Tigers LLC, an LLC based in Jefferson City, MO, US, having its registration carried in the US registry. Maintenance and resale notes for this specific airframe emphasize lifecycle and systems status tied to its 1988 build and ongoing owner stewardship.
Operations & Cabin
The cabin of N105SJ follows the aircraft’s typical 8-10 passenger executive layout (forward club, mid single/club, aft divan), although the configuration can vary by individual airframe refit and owner preference. As a US-registered corporate jet based with its owner in Jefferson City, MO, US, this airframe is typically employed on medium-range executive missions that take advantage of the Falcon 50’s transcontinental/overwater range and high cruise speed. Avionics and interior fits for this specific airframe are subject to the refit history and owner upgrades and therefore vary; operators often prioritize avionics modernization and hot section checks for the TFE731 engines. Maintenance considerations for this airframe center on three-engine complexity, aging-airframe inspections, and ensuring parts/overhaul programs are current.
Model & Market Context
The Falcon 50 family occupies a niche as a long-range, tri-jet executive transport with higher cruise speed and hot-and-high capability compared with many light-midsize twins of its era. Competing models historically included long-range variants of midsize business jets, but the Falcon’s three-engine layout uniquely appealed to transoceanic operators and those requiring redundancy. Buyer and charter demand for late 1980s Falcon 50s tends to target cost-conscious owners seeking sturdy airframes with moderate acquisition prices; resale and operating costs hinge on engine maintenance cycles, avionics upgrades and interior refurbishment status, all relevant to the documented 1988 airframe N105SJ.
