The Dassault Falcon 8X stands as the flagship of Dassault's business jet lineup, offering an impressive 6,450 nautical mile (11,945 km) range that connects major global business centers nonstop. This ultra-long-range trijet combines French engineering excellence with practical versatility, featuring the ability to access challenging airports like London City that competitors simply cannot match.
Evolved from the successful Falcon 7X, the 8X features an elongated fuselage providing a spacious 42.8-foot cabin with 1,695 cubic feet of luxurious living space. The aircraft achieves remarkable fuel efficiency – up to 30% better than competitors – while maintaining impressive performance with a maximum speed of Mach 0.90 (1,111 km/h) and a service ceiling of 51,000 feet.
Powered by three enhanced Pratt & Whitney PW307D engines, each producing 6,722 pounds of thrust, the Falcon 8X delivers exceptional takeoff and landing performance. The aircraft requires just 5,880 feet for takeoff and can land in only 2,220 feet, making it uniquely capable of operating from shorter runways.
The EASy III Flight Deck features advanced avionics and digital flight controls, ensuring precise handling and superior safety. With its perfect balance of range, cabin comfort, airport versatility, and efficiency, the Falcon 8X represents the ultimate choice for discerning business travelers seeking global connectivity without compromise.
