India To See Falcon 8X For The First Time At Wings India Wings India is India's largest civilian aviation showcase and Dassault will be showcasing their flagship Falcon 8X at this show which is expected to open tomorrow (March 8th) at the Hyderabad Begumpet Airport. The first Falcon 8X was handed over to an Indian customer early last year and is now in operation in all major markets, including the U.S., Europe, the Middle East, Brazil and China as well as India.
“The unmatched ability of Falcons to combine short and long haul flights and fly out of short hard-to-reach airstrips with full range performance - even at high altitudes and extreme temperature conditions - make them perfect for Indian operating conditions,” said Dassault Aviation Chairman/CEO Eric Trappier. “No other business jet line is more suited to local requirements.” The Dassault Falcon 8X has built on the immense reputation of the Falcon 7X as well as the sales prowess and hopefully will make the French company proud. Recently, Dassault Falcon announced the Falcon 6X which is the new Pratt & Whitney re-engined variant of the now discontinued 5X.
