RADAR ESTIMATE

What N123RA is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the Dassault Falcon 20C on its own yet, so this borrows the Cessna Citation XLS+ curve, scales it to N123RA's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N123RA

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This airframe, registered as N123RA, is a Dassault Falcon 20C (Fan Jet Falcon) built in 1966 with manufacturer serial number 30. The airframe has been operated in civil US registry status US and is owned by Royal Air Freight Inc, a corporation based in Waterford, MI, US; this ownership establishes the aircraft primarily as a corporate/charter asset.

Operations & Cabin

The airframe is configured for 12 seats, consistent with light corporate and small charter transport missions for which this model is commonly used. Cabin layout and avionics fit for this specific tail are not published beyond seating, but the aircraft’s role with Royal Air Freight Inc suggests utilization on regional and transregional routes within the stated 1,810 nm range and cruise speeds near 405 kts. Typical operations would emphasize point-to-point business or freight-support missions from the owner’s Waterford, Michigan base, with maintenance profiles influenced by the aircraft’s age and the CF700-series turbofan installations. Known aircraft-specific amenities or retrofits are not published for this registration.

Model & Market Context

The airframe belongs to the Dassault Falcon 20 family, positioned historically as an early corporate twin-jet offering higher cruise speeds and service ceilings for its class. With twin General Electric CF700 series engines producing 4,200 lbf each and a ceiling of 42,000 ft, the type filled a mid-1960s performance niche between smaller light jets and larger business transports.
