We’ve said for a long time (since it was first announced) that the Falcon 10X could be a “category killer” with exquisite cabin aesthetics and cabin VOLUME. Not to mention the unmatched fighter jet provenance !
Falcon 10X Progress
The 10X is now in flight test and looking even bigger in real life !
Performance Adjustments
The Falcon 10X could perhaps use a little more range (this will undoubtedly be tweaked because range is the “numero uno” concern for the person with the deep pockets). City pairs are the most relevant performance factor to any ultra-long range bizjet owner.
Although the top speed title is currently held by the Global 8000, those niggling Mach number differences (at any flight level) are irrelevant in the real world. Nothing more than vapor-trail bragging rights.
The Competition
It remains to be seen if Falconjet can ramp up its sales force to pick-off the Gulfstream G700 /G800 and Bombardier Global 7500/8000 fence-sitters, or indeed, perhaps convert some of “the faithful”.
Onwards and upwards !
