Dassault Aviation<\/strong> launched the Falcon 8X<\/strong>, the newest addition to the Falcon<\/strong> family in the ultra long range category.\u00a0The Falcon 8X<\/strong> will offer a range of 6,450 nm (11,945 km) and will feature the longest cabin of any Falcon<\/strong>. Moreover, it will offer the same low operating economics and the remarkable operating flexibility for which all Falcons<\/strong> are known.<\/p>\n

The Longest Falcon Ever<\/h2>\n

\u201cThe Falcon 8X<\/strong> will be the longest cabin of any Falcon<\/strong>. But, more importantly, it will feature the highest level of customization of any large cabin business jet<\/strong> on the market,\u201d said Eric Trappier,\u00a0Dassault Aviation<\/strong> Chairman and CEO.<\/p>\n

Indeed, the Falcon 8X<\/strong> cabin will be 6 ft 2 in (1.88 m) high and 7 ft 8 in (2.34 m) wide and 42 ft 8 in (13 m) long, enabling it to offer customers the most diverse selection of cabin layouts on the market.\u00a0More than 30 configurations will be available.<\/p>\n

Three galley sizes, two with a crew-rest option, are available. Operators will have an extensive selection of passenger seating areas of varying lengths that can support different lavatory layouts, including a lavatory with shower.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt builds on Dassault<\/strong> expertise in aerodynamics, in precision design and manufacturing, and in advanced digital flight<\/strong> controls. It embodies the best of Falcons<\/strong> that have come before with the most capability of any Falcon<\/strong> ever,\u201d said Trappier.<\/p>\n

Legendary Falcon Performance\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Falcon 8X<\/strong> will be equipped with three PW307D engines delivering 6,722 lbs of thrust each \u2013 a 5% increase compared to the PW307A that powers the Falcon 7X<\/strong>. Therefore, with eight passengers and three crew, the Falcon 8X<\/strong> will be capable of flying 6,450 nm non-stop at M.80.\u00a0These new engines will also\u00a0make the 8X<\/strong> up to 35% more fuel efficient than any other aircraft<\/strong> in the ultra-long range segment and\u00a0offer a significant reduction in community noise and NOx emissions.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the Falcon 8X<\/strong> will also be fitted with a redesigned ultra-efficient wing derived from the Falcon 7X<\/strong>. The wing structure has been redesigned to minimize the overall aircraft drag during cruise while achieving a 600 lb weight saving. It will also feature optimized leading edge profile and winglets. These improvements are expected to increase significantly the lift to drag ratio.<\/p>\n

Like the Falcon 7X<\/strong>, the Falcon 8X<\/strong> will be capable of approaches up to 6 degrees, allowing it to serve challenging airports such as London City Airport; Aspen, Colorado; La Mole (Saint-Tropez), France; and Saanen (Gstaad), Switzerland that are normally not accessible to most large cabin aircraft<\/strong>.\u00a0With its 6,450 nm range, the Falcon 8X<\/strong> will be also able to perform an extensive list of one-leg missions such as Beijing to New York, Hong Kong to Seattle, Paris to Singapore and Sao Paulo to Moscow.<\/p>\n

Finally, the Falcon 8X<\/strong> will be equipped with a totally redesigned cockpit modeled after the Falcon 5X<\/strong>. It will feature a new generation of the EASy flight deck equipped with a head-up display that combines synthetic and enhanced vision and offer a dual HUD capability.<\/p>\n

First flight is expected in early 2015 with certification in the middle of 2016 and initial deliveries before the end of 2016.<\/p>\n
