Brazilian Company Takes Delivery Of 100th Falcon 7X

Fleet Has Accumulated 57,000 Flying Hours

The 100th Dassault Falcon 7X was delivered to a Brazilian financial services company at the aircraft maker's completion center in Little Rock, Arkansas Tuesday.


Delivery Ceremony

“We promised to design and build the most technically advanced and best flying aircraft in the industry and we’ve already achieved that 100 times,” said John Rosanvallon, President and CEO of Dassault Falcon. “During that time, feedback from pilots and passengers alike has been very positive. Pilots appreciate in particular the digital flight control system which makes the Falcon 7X the easiest and most rewarding large business jet to fly.

To date, Dassault says the 5,950 nm Falcon 7X fleet has accumulated more than 57,000 flight hours, operating in over 25 countries with orders coming from more than 40 countries. The fleet leader has logged more than 3,000 flight hours since its delivery mid 2007. "The high usage rate (higher than other Falcons) demonstrates that the Falcon 7X is a very active part of many flight departments,” said Jacques Chauvet, Senior Vice President of Customer Service.
