Dassault Aviation’s new Falcon 8X has received approval from the US Federal Aviation Administration, just after receipt of European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) type certificate, bringing the big new trijet’s certification and flight test campaign to a successful conclusion.
The Falcon 8X is now preparing for entry-into-service which is scheduled for early fourth quarter.
The 6,450 nm / 11,945 km Falcon 8X will provide the greatest range and longest cabin of any Falcon and the same exceptional short-field performance, operating economy and quietness as the Falcon 7X from which it is derived. It will also offer the largest selection of standard cabin configurations on any large business jet.
The 26th Falcon 8X is currently in final assembly in the Mérignac plant, while twelve aircraft are in cabin outfitting in the Little Rock plant (Arkansas, United States).
Derived from the Falcon 7X, the Falcon 8X first flew on February 6, 2015. It will offer the greatest range and the longest cabin of any Falcon, allowing it to fly passengers comfortably from Beijing to New York, Hong Kong to London or Los Angeles to Moscow nonstop.
It will also share the 7X’s exceptional operating economy and short-field performance. In addition to the quietest cabin and the most advanced digital flight control system in business aviation, the trijet will feature the largest selection of standard cabin configurations of any large business jet.
