context_page_description: The Dassault Falcon 6X is a large, long-range business jet under development by Dassault Aviation in France.
context_section_description: The Falcon 6X is largely based on the Falcon 5X aerodynamics and systems, validated during its preliminary flight test program, but it is optimized to take advantage of its 13,000–14,000 lbf (58–62 kN) PW812D engines for a longer cabin and a greater 5,500 nmi (10,200 km) range, a Mach 0.90 top speed and a Mach 0.85 cruise.
  Its cabin is 12.3 m (40 ft) long, can accommodate 16 passengers in three zones with 29 windows including a galley skylight and is 1.98 m (78 in) high by 2.58 m (102 in) wide, the largest purpose built business jet cross section.
  A front-fuselage extension makes its cabin 51 cm (20 in) longer.
  The Falcon 6X reinforces the 5X new 70.7 m² (761 sq ft) wing and keeps its digital flight control system and Honeywell Primus Epic EASy III flight deck.
  The new engine fans will have a diameter of 112–15 cm (44–6 in) shorter than in the Gulfstreams, and with four low-pressure turbine stages instead of five, engine weight is reduced by 91 kg (200 lb).
  Its empty weight increases by 1,030 kg (2,270 lb) or 5.7%, from 18.1 to 19.2 t (40,000 to 42,300 lb), due to heavier engines, fuel system and structural reinforcements.
