  1. Dassault Falcon 8X Certified For EFVS To 100ft Operations
    Yesterday French Airframer Dassault Falcon announced that the Falcon 8X has been certified by EASA and the FAA for an enhanced flight vision system capability. It gives operational credit for poor visibility approaches down to 100 ft, greatly improving access to airports in bad weather and significantly enhancing fleet efficiency. The new EFVS capability, provided through the 8X’s revolutionary FalconEye combined vision system (CVS), was certified for operational use following the completion of a joint EASA/FAA certification campaign earlier this year. EFVS to 100 ft is expected to be approved for the Falcon 2000LX and Falcon 900LX by the end of the year.
  2. Coming in 2020 approximately will be the enhanced Falcon Eye option. The addition of a dual head up display configuration will support an EFVS to land capability, allowing pilots to fly a full approach and land without using natural vision to see the runway. Other options and enhancements the Falcon 8X has include, approval for London City Airport (LCY) operations, Dassault’s Falcon Sphere II integrated electronic flight bag suite; and FalconConnect, a comprehensive package of broadband communications solutions designed to facilitate the use, management and control of inflight connectivity.
