Duncan Gives New Life to Aging Dassault Falcon 900B

Duncan Aviation recently completed a substantial refurbishment project that made a 32-year-old Falcon 900B look new again, the Lincoln, Nebraska-based MRO said. The work involved a new paint scheme and interior that involved rearranging the floor plan. Duncan Aviation used one of its STCs to install a high-density 16-passenger interior with eight single seats and two four-place divans.

The light cream interior was accented with black welt cord outlines and a low sidewall features black leather with an embossed pattern to provide dimension. In addition, Duncan added a light solid surface in the galley to contrast dark veneers of cabinetry. The carpet highlights the cabin colors with shades of black, gray, and cream, while a vinyl floor was installed in the galley.

Duncan said a couple of defining highlights included the modification of the drink rail and passenger service unit designs. The MRO further installed a Honeywell Ovation cabin management system, API winglets, FANS, and Gogo Avance L5 Wi-Fi, as well as Universal Avionics EFI-890 displays on the flight deck.

“I purchased this aircraft knowing it needed love and care,” said aircraft owner Greg Hatcher, principal of The Hatcher Agency in Little Rock, Arkansas. “I flew away with an aircraft that looks better than the new one next to it on the ramp for a lot less money.”
