2008 Dassault Falcon 7X Longe Range Jet

The Dassault Falcon 7X is a tri-engine, ultra-long-range business jet produced from 2007 to 2018, notable as the first business jet designed entirely using digital tools and the first to feature fly-by-wire flight controls. Seating up to 16 passengers, the Falcon 7X cruises at 459 knots with a range of 5,950 nautical miles, powered by three Pratt and Whitney Canada PW307A engines. With fuel burn of approximately 340 gallons per hour, variable hourly costs around $4,500, and annual fixed costs near $800,000, the Falcon 7X offers ultra-long-range capability. The three-engine configuration enables steep-approach certifications at airports like London City that twin-engine jets cannot access. The Falcon 7X appeals to multinational corporations and high-net-worth individuals who need global range with the operational flexibility that only a trijet can provide. Its fly-by-wire system delivers exceptional handling qualities and turbulence dampening that passengers notice immediately. The 7X was succeeded by the Falcon 8X with extended range.
