Saint-Cloud, France
Simulating a “penthouse in the sky,” Dassault Aviation’s latest business jet Falcon 10X offers an eclectic atmosphere and makes passengers forget they were in an aircraft, using architecture and product design as references.
Falcon 10X has recently been awarded a 2022 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
The Falcon 10X will feature an entirely new fuselage with extra-large windows—nearly 50 percent larger than those on the Falcon 8X.
Thirty-eight windows will line the fuselage making for the brightest cabin in business aviation.
The high-speed wing will be made of carbon fiber composites for maximum strength, reduced weight, and minimum drag.
Tailored for speed and efficiency, the very-high aspect ratio wing will be equipped with advanced, retractable high-lift devices offering superior maneuverability at low approach speeds.
Lounges are designed like apartments or hotel rooms with dedicated functions.
Sensory design is used in colors and materials.
The twin-engine aircraft will be powered by business aviation’s most advanced and efficient engine, the in-development Rolls-Royce Pearl® 10X.
The 10X is the latest, largest, and most powerful version of the Pearl series, delivering more than 18,000 pounds of thrust.
