UPCOMING SPOTLIGHT<br />
DASSAULT FALCON 6X<br />
In 2018, Dassault launched the Falcon 6X program in Paris using a picture<br />
of the aircraft flying over Hong Kong harbour. It was perhaps an omen for<br />
how it is the perfect aircraft for the <strong>Asian</strong> market —long-range with next-level<br />
comfort. The model is now one step closer to rocking the sky with the ultimate<br />
cabin experience. At this year’s EBACE, the French manufacturer announced<br />
that the 6X’s critical design review had been completed and the manufacture<br />
of major parts has commenced. The new jet is on track for its first flight in<br />
2021 and entry into service in 2022.<br />
