Anyone who remotely even follows Dassault Aviation would have come across the name Serge Dassault. He was not only one of France's richest individuals but he owned the French Newspaper Figaro and more importantly was the man behind Dassault Aviation. He served at the CEO of the company for more than 30 years. He was reportedly at work when a heart attack killed him on Monday (28th May). Dassault Aviation manufactures the Falcon line of business jets which encompasses numerous models as well as the Mirage and Rafale fighter aircraft.
