Dassault Falcon Service (DFS) recently completed the first scheduled C-check on a Falcon 7X, preparing the way for the start of routine overhauls on the trijet. C-checks are the largest scheduled maintenance events on the Falcon 7X and are due every eight years or 4,000 cycles, whichever comes first. The 7X entered service in 2007.
