Don't know about the straight 2000...I can only imagine what a dog if the 900EX was a dog with the ice one. It's an underpowered airplane, no doubt.
Only other Falcon experience is the 7X - and it is night/day performance compared to the 900. Yes, it takes a hit max weight, ice on climb like most planes - but it can still climb and accelerate like an airplane should. Maybe that's what you get when you have decent motors and a real wing?
You don't know fun until you are in a 900EX coming out of S America at night stuck in the 30's when FL430 or FL450 would be clear sailing.

Now, of course, we all know the Gulfstream just does not have these problems.
