Dassault Aviation plans to open a company-owned service center early next year at São Paulo Catarina International Executive Airport. The center will replace Dassault’s existing facility at Sorocaba.

The Catarina facility will offer nearly 40,000 sq ft of floor and office space and accommodate up to five Falcon business jets at a time. It also will be large enough for the ultra-long-range Falcon 10X, which is now in development.
