\n Dassault Aviation Rolls Out Falcon 6X <\/strong>\n <\/p>\n

\n This Aircraft Sets a New Standard in Long-Range, <\/em>
\n
\n Ultra Wide-Body Segment<\/em>\n <\/p>\n

\n Saint-Cloud, France, December 8th<\/sup>, 2020<\/strong> \u2013 The final assembly team at Dassault Aviation in Bordeaux-Merignac (France) opened the doors of Charles Lindbergh Hall today to show the world the company\u2019s newest and most advanced aircraft, the Falcon 6X.<\/p>\n

\n \u201cToday\u2019s rollout is a significant achievement. I am very pleased to present the addition of an all-new aircraft design within the Falcon family, the ultra-wide body Falcon 6X,\u201d<\/em> said Dassault Aviation Chairman and CEO Eric Trappier. \u201cThe challenges posed by the Covid-19 epidemic required exceptional perseverance and cooperation on the part of Dassault and its partner companies.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Though circumstances forced the company to stage a \u201cvirtual\u201d unveiling, the event had global reach. Customers and operators from all over the world logged on to see the aircraft make its first public appearance.\u00a0 But despite the novelty of the setting, the live-streamed world premiere was a great success, attracting a record number of visitors.\u00a0 Viewers can watch a replay of the event at www.Falcon6XRollout.com<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

\n \u201cThe Falcon 6X presents a major step forward for large-cabin business jet operators,\u201d <\/em>continued Trappier. \u201cIts award winning-cabin–the tallest and widest in business aviation–provides levels of spaciousness, comfort, productivity and safety that will set a new benchmark in the long-range segment.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

The rollout paves the way for completion of the ground test program and the extensive systems checks that must be performed before the first flight, which is scheduled to occur early next year.<\/p>\n

In recent months, Pratt & Whitney Canada completed ground and flight tests of the aircraft\u2019s PW812D engine clearing the path to first flight of the 6X.<\/p>\n

With a 5,500 nm (10,186 km) range and top speed of Mach .90, the Falcon 6X can connect passengers to major business centers far and wide. It can fly from London to Hong Kong or from Los Angeles to Moscow nonstop. The Falcon 6X can also perform safe approaches as low as t only 109 knots, slower than other business jets. This allows the 6X like the others Falcons \u2014to safely access small airports equipped with ultra-short and hard-to-reach runways.<\/p>\n
