The Dassault Falcon 7X is a large-cabin, 5,950 nautical miles (eleven,020 km) range business jet manufactured by Dassault Aviation, the 2d largest of its Dassault Falcon line. Launched at 2001 Paris Air Show, its first flight was on 5 May 2005 and information technology entered service on 15 June 2007. The Falcon 8X is derived from the 7X with a longer range of six,450 nautical miles (11,950 km) afforded by engine optimizing, aerodynamic refinements and an increase in fuel capacity.[7] Featuring an S-duct fundamental engine, it and the Falcon 900 are the only 2 trijets in production.

Falcon 7X [edit]

Development [edit]

Dassault launched the FNX at the 2001 Paris Air Bear witness, aiming for a x,500km (5,700nm) range at Mach 0.88, upwards from the Falcon 900EX's viii,300 km at Mach 0.84. Its new high-speed fly is 1.86 yard (6 ft 1 in) longer with v° higher wing sweep than the 900 fly; while its fuselage is twenty% longer, it keeps the aforementioned motel cross-department but with a new curved windscreen. The trijet has a combined thrust of 18,000lb (80kN) provided by Honeywell FX5s, a new design, or a Pratt & Whitney Canada PW306 growth version. Based on Honeywell Primus Epic avionics, its Like shooting fish in a barrel cockpit is developed for the Falcon 2000EX and 900EX and controls are fly-by-wire. Scheduled to fly in 2004, first deliveries were planned for mid-2006.[viii]

With 41 deposits, information technology was named 7X in Nov with get-go flight slipping from late 2004 to early 2005 and certification planned for mid-2006. With a simplified structure to reduce cost and weight, the optimised high-transonic wing improves the lift-to-drag ratio by 10% over the supercritical wing of the Falcon 50 shared by previous Falcons. The motel is 2.4m (8ft) longer than the 900 and has a lower 6,000ft (one,800m) cabin altitude. the 6,100 lbf (27.1 kN) PW307A was finally selected, amongst other hazard-sharing partners: Honeywell for avionics architecture, auxiliary power unit, air management system; with Parker Hannifin for the power generation system and wheels brakes; and TRW Aeronautical Systems for the hydromechanical flap and airbrake systems.[9]

With over l firm orders, it completed its beginning flight on 5 May 2005, flying for 1h 36min from Bordeaux-Merignac, starting a ane,200h flight test programme over xv calendar month: it climbed to x,000 ft (3,000 thousand) for hydraulic, fuel, air data and landing gear extraction/retraction systems tests, then climbed to 25,000 ft for acceleration/deceleration tests and basic autopilot and autothrottle operations. The second Falcon 7X was planned to join in June of that twelvemonth, and the third with a full interior in September that yr for long-range, endurance tests and interior sound level validation: Dassault aims for a 52dB audio level in the motel, 4dB lower than other Falcons. Certification slipped to late 2006 and first deliveries to early on 2007.[i]

It was first presented to the public at the 2005 Paris Air Show. The shipping has received its type certification from both the Federal Aviation Administration and European Aviation Safe Agency (EASA) on 27 April 2007.[10] The first 7X, MSN05, entered service on 15 June 2007.[iii] The hundredth was delivered in November 2010.[eleven] Information technology conducted high distance aerodrome tests at 4,400 yard (14,500 ft) in Daocheng in 2014.[12]

Price [edit]

In 2001, the Falcon 7X, at approximately $35 million (preproduction gild price), was nearly $10 1000000 cheaper than its nearest competitors in the long-range, big motel market segment, including the Gulfstream G550 and Bombardier Global Express.[13] It was targeted to be priced for 2004 at 12% more than than the $33 1000000 height-of-the-range Falcon 900EX equipped: $39.six million.[9] Its cost was $37 million in 2005,[1] and $41 million in 2007.[14] In 2017, its list price was $54M, a 3-4-year-old 7X was worth $27-34m and a 7-nine year erstwhile one cost $19-24M.[15] The latest market data for Q1 2020 shows 287 out of 289 aircraft currently in operation with an asking price range of $18,495,000 - $24,800,000.[xvi] In 2022, its equipped price was $53.8M.[17]

Design [edit]

The Falcon 7X is a three-engined cantilever monoplane with a low-positioned, highly swept fly. Information technology has a horizontal stabiliser at mid-height and a retractable tricycle landing gear, and 3 rear-mounted Pratt & Whitney PW307A turbofan engines : two on the side of the fuselage and one in a center position, and room for 19 passengers and iii crew.[18] It is the first production Falcon jet with winglets.

It is the kickoff fully wing-by-wire business organization jet and is equipped with the aforementioned avionics suite, the Honeywell Primus Epic "Enhanced Avionics Arrangement" (Easy), that was used on the Falcon 900EX and later on the Falcon 2000EX.[19]

The Falcon 7X is notable for its extensive use of computer-aided design, the manufacturer claiming information technology to exist the "first aircraft to be designed entirely on a virtual platform", using Dassault Systemes' CATIA and PLM products.[20]

In February 2010, Dassault Falcon and BMW Designworks were awarded the 2009 Practiced Pattern Award by the Chicago Archives and the European Center for Architecture Art Design for their collaboration on the new Falcon 7X interior option.[21] Due to special engine mounts and motel isolators, the cabin is extremely tranquillity, below 50 dBA, and is available with a shower. [22]

Pitch trim incident [edit]

EASA grounded the Falcon 7X fleet subsequently a report from Dassault Aviation regarding an uncontrolled pitch trim runaway during descent in one of its jets in May 2011.[23] [24] The aircraft pitched up to 41 degrees, with the load factor increasing to four.6thousand, it climbed from 13,000 to 22,500 ft and the airspeed went from 300 to 125 kn.[25]

"This status, if occurring again, could lead to loss of command of the aeroplane," the EASA notice said.[26] Initial results of investigation showed that in that location was a production defect in the Horizontal Stabilizer Electronic Control Unit which could have contributed to the cause of the result.[27] Dassault Aviation adult modifications in June 2011 to allow a render to flying.[28]

Afterwards iv years of investigation, the Bureau d'Enquêtes et d'Analyses pour la Sécurité de l'Aviation Civile published its final report in June 2016. It was found that wrong nose-upwardly commands to the trimmable horizontal stabilizer were caused by a soldering defect on the pin of its electronic control unit of measurement provided by Rockwell Collins.[25]

Teterboro-London Metropolis record [edit]

On May ii, 2014, Dassault Falcon pilots Philippe Deleume and Olivier Froment set a new speed record for the Falcon 7X on a 5 h 54 min flight from New York Teterboro Drome to London Metropolis Aerodrome with three passengers on board.[29]

Falcon 8X [edit]

Falcon 8X inflight, 15 cabin windows

The 6,450 nmi (11,945 km) range Falcon 8X was announced at the European Concern Aviation Convention & Exhibition in May 2014. Its motel is 1.1 one thousand (three.five ft) longer than the 7X. With improvements to wing design and improved Pratt & Whitney Canada PW300, the 8X is up to 35% more than fuel efficient than its competitors.[30]

The paradigm, registered F-WWQA, beginning flew from Bordeaux–Mérignac Airdrome on 6 February 2015.[2] The Falcon 8X was added as a subtype of the Falcon 7X on the EASA type certificate on 24 June 2016 every bit modification M1000 for S/Northward 0401 and ongoing.[18] Dassault delivered the first Falcon 8X on 5 Oct 2016 to Greek business aviation operator Amjet Executive.[iv] By October 2018, the Falcon 8X FalconEye EFVS was approved by the FAA and EASA for approaches down to 100 ft (xxx yard), and dual HUD FalconEye will permit EVS-to-land in 2020, without using natural vision.[31]

The 3 PW307D turbofans gained 320 lbf (1.4 kN) each, and are 1.5% more fuel efficient.[six] MTOW is increased from lxx,000 to 73,000 lb (31.viii to 33.1 t) and fuel chapters is increased by iii,200 lb (1.five t) for 500 nmi (930 km) more range.[6] The wing structure is 600 lb (270 kg) lighter, and more than flexible for comfort, while operating empty weight is 200 lb (91 kg) heavier than the 7X despite the 3.5 ft (1.1 m) stretch.[six] A strict weight control allows most operators to match or best Dassault's 36,800 lb (16.vii t) estimate BOWs for a fully equipped aircraft with three crewmembers.[vi] Its unmatched structural efficiency, with a OEW only half of MTOW, allow a superior fuel efficiency while its MTOW is less than a four,100 nmi (7,600 km) Gulfstream IV-SP. The first 60 minutes fuel burn is 4,000 lb (1.8 t) while average cruise fuel burn down is 2,250 lb (1.02 t) per h.[vi] The 47 db average cabin audio level is two-3 db lower than the Falcon 7X.[6] In 2022, its equipped price was $62.5M.[32]
