We Fly: Falcon 8X

Gemini Sparkle

Key Takeaways:

  • The Dassault Falcon 8X is an ultralong-range business jet, extending its predecessor's (7X) range significantly with more powerful engines and increased fuel capacity, while maintaining excellent short-field performance and the safety of its three-engine design.
  • It features advanced fly-by-wire controls with sidesticks, state-of-the-art avionics including FalconEye for enhanced situational awareness, and comprehensive flight-envelope protection, making it precise, safe, and enjoyable to pilot.
  • The extended cabin offers greater customization options for passengers, a popular dedicated crew rest area to mitigate fatigue on long flights, and improved comfort through reduced noise and lower cabin pressurization.

On the surface, 3½ feet — just over a yard — might not mean much to most people. Spread your arms out and that’s about it. But in a business jet, every inch of extra space, like every pound of weight designers can eliminate, translates into additional customer options for organizing that new cabin.
