Dassault announced yesterday that it expects the Falcon 2000S will beat its initial performance numbers. To date, the test aircraft has logged more than 300 flight hours in some 130 flights and opened up the full flight envelope. “The last phase of the campaign revealed that low-speed performance will be significantly better than targeted figures, up to 10 percent for landing distances,” Dassault said. Falcon 2000S certification is expected by year-end.
