Legacy Jet Profile: Dassault Falcon 20
The Dassault Falcon 20 was the first business jet produced by Dassault Aviation and played a historic role in shaping corporate aviation worldwide. Introduced in the 1960s, the Falcon 20 helped pioneer the jet charter era, offering speed, range, and a cabin layout that was well-suited for business travel. Today, this aircraft is no longer in regular charter service, but it remains part of JetOptions’ Legacy & Special Fleet—available in select markets by special arrangement.
Falcon 20 Key Features
Initially designed for executive use, the Falcon 20’s cabin was comfortable for its era, offering reclining leather seats, large windows, and generous legroom. Though now classified as a legacy aircraft, it still delivers a memorable private flight experience under the right conditions.
Historic Significance
The Falcon 20 has a unique place in aviation history. Notably, it was the first aircraft flown by FedEx in 1973, marking the launch of their overnight delivery service. It was also adapted by several government and military agencies around the world, including the U.S. Coast Guard, as the HU-25 Guardian. Known for its robust performance and reliability, the Falcon 20 earned its reputation over decades of successful operation.
Special Charter Availability
JetOptions may be able to arrange a Falcon 20 for private charter in limited markets. This aircraft is part of our Legacy & Special Charter Jet category and is no longer promoted for standard itineraries. It may appeal to private flyers seeking a vintage or nostalgic experience, collectors, or those operating from specific airfields with access to legacy fleet models.
