Along with marking the global public debut of the Falcon 6X this week at EBACE 2022, Dassault Aviation (Booth Z67, Static AD_20) is displaying a full-size cabin mockup of its Falcon 10X for the first time in Europe as the company’s largest business jet to date moves into the production phase. “We are making excellent progress in getting this new aircraft into production, and the coming months will see an increasing flow of parts, subsystems, and large structures into our facilities,” said Dassault chairman and CEO Eric Trappier.

The 10X mockup on display this week in Geneva has a cabin configuration that differs from the one shown in October at NBAA-BACE—which is remaining in the U.S.—and emphasizes the highly modular design and flexible arrangements of the interior. Dassault unveiled the 10X, its largest and longest-range aircraft yet, in May 2021. Intended range is 7,500 nm at Mach 0.85 with a maximum operating Mmo of Mach 0.925.
