RADAR ESTIMATE
What N1978G is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the Dassault Falcon 900EX on its own yet, so this borrows the Dassault Falcon 7X curve, scales it to N1978G's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N1978G
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
This airframe, registered as N1978G, is a 2008-built Dassault Falcon 900EX with serial number 215. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by Gig Air LLC of Atlanta, GA, US, which is the listed operator/home base for this airframe. Maintenance and valuation notes reflect a well-equipped EX variant with advanced avionics options for its production era.
Operations & Cabin
The registry for N1978G documents a 21-seat transport/high-density cabin layout; this specific airframe is commonly reconfigured to an 8-12 seat executive arrangement for corporate or charter missions. Avionics fit for the EX airframe is Honeywell Primus equipment, with the EX EASy variant typically outfitted with Primus Epic EASy systems while other EX examples may carry Primus 2000 installations, this airframe carries the Honeywell Primus family avionics consistent with its EX designation. Typical missions for this airframe include long-range transcontinental and international transport from its Atlanta base, capitalizing on its 4,500 nm range and high-altitude capability up to 51,000 ft. Operational considerations for this aircraft reflect the three-engine Falcon architecture, higher-seat-density versatility, and maintenance schedules aligned to Honeywell TFE731-60 powerplants.
Model & Market Context
The Dassault Falcon 900EX airframe occupies a performance niche for long-range, high-speed, high-altitude business and group transport within the tri-engine Falcon family. It competes with other long-range business jets in mission capability and cabin flexibility; the EX variant’s Honeywell Primus avionics and TFE731-60 engines are factors in buyer and charter demand. Resale and maintenance considerations for this specific airframe emphasize the value of its documented high-density cabin conversion potential, avionics fit, and the operational history tied to its registered owner, Gig Air LLC.
