Simmons First National Corp. purchased a second jet last fall, a 1997 Dassault Falcon 2000, but don’t expect a fleet.

The Pine Bluff bank holding company’s first aircraft, a 2005 Cessna 560XL bought in early 2015, is for sale, said spokesman Rex Nelson.

The Falcon 2000, which typically has a capacity of eight to 10 passengers, was registered with the Federal Aviation Administration in November.

When Simmons purchased the Cessna, CEO George Makris Jr. explained: “It is a long way from Wichita to Knoxville!” Since then, Simmons has announced some acquisitions that, when completed, will push the footprint further west than Kansas and further south than Star City: Bank SNB of Stillwater, Oklahoma, which has three branches in Colorado, and Southwest Bank of Fort Worth, Texas.
