Dassault brought two of its latest-model business jets to the Dubai Airshow: the 6X with the largest cabin cross-section of any purpose-built business jet, and the 8X, the longest-range Falcon until the 10X enters service. The twin-engine 6X’s cabin measures 6.5 feet high and 8.5 feet wide, and cabin volume is 1,843 cu ft.

Taking advantage of its in-house flight control design and manufacturing capabilities, Dassault incorporated flaperon functionality, enabling the jet’s fly-by-wire lift-over-drag augmentation, which improves steep approach visibility, control, and comfort. While the 6X is a large airplane, it carries on the trademark Falcon handling characteristics that pilots have come to appreciate.
