Dassault Falcon 6X

The Dassault Falcon 6X is one of the newest and largest members of the Falcon family, offering the widest, tallest cabin cross-section Dassault has ever built for a business jet. Unlike some Falcon siblings, it uses twin engines rather than three, reflecting how far engine reliability has advanced since the trijet Falcon 900 and 7X were designed. Its large cabin windows are notably bigger than on most other business jets, letting in significantly more natural light. It represents Dassault's push to compete more directly with large-cabin rivals from Gulfstream and Bombardier.
