Flying New Dassault Falcon 6X - TransAtlantic to Paris

At the end of NBAA 2022, I hopped on the new experimental Dassault Falcon 6X, the latest Falcon jet transatlantic from Orlando to Paris. It was my first time flying on a private jet across the Atlantic and what an experience it was!

The Falcon 6X is in a new category of Business Aviation: the Ultra Widebody business jet. It flies at a top speed of Mach 0.90 and has 5,500nm (10,186 km) range. My flight to Paris was an 8 hours overnight flight. We used just 4,500 ft of runway out of Orlando Executive Airport.

The aircraft was extremely quiet with a cabin altitude of just 3,900 ft which is much lower than commercial aircraft. On this factory demonstrator, the rear sofa on each side can turn into a huge super king bed. I experienced a good night of sleep and watched the sunrise in bed with breakfast at 47,000 ft. Enough said for the private jet experience.

3 years ago at Paris Airshow 2019, I saw the Falcon 6X mock-up and today I have flown on the jet itself. The Dassault Falcon 6X is expected to be certified in 2023 and so far 19 examples have been built.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the amazing hostess? The food, the service, the dedication to excellent customer care…

I am proud to be French when I see a plane like this. Beautiful!

The best part is arguably Sam’s genuine passion and appreciation for the experience.

We have to admit he never disappoints us with his contents

That's definitely the way to travel. Great to see Miles on the trip as well! One of my very favorite journalists.

As far as I know, only D’assault offered to cover an actual haul long flight with its staff and with an actual private jet flight experience with an attendant, meals, bed actual experience. I really appreciated that. Good initiative Dassault and good job Sam.

Catherine is so professional and talented. Nice jet and video Sam.

@ 2:30 Miles O'Brien is a SUPERSTAR⭐️ I remember him from his many years on CNN & PBS! He was also the presenter for the rollout of the Falcon 6X two years before this flight.

Always love a Sam Chui video first thing on a Saturday morning. Great to see Miles O'Brien, a great representative of aviation and science for decades. The technology on these jets is fantastic. There is certainly a trickle down effect in terms of technology for private pilots.

Gorgeous plane, gorgeous flight attendant

Absolutely amazing! An experience very few of us will get to enjoy in our lifetime!

[toftimsecondaire]

Ok, this is incredible. Dassault is so ahead of the other manufacturers. I can wait to work with them!

I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this video and everyone in it. The visuals are top notch as usual.

[michaelgill]

Great video! Also for benefit, do not forget all the thousands of jobs that these planes create both in France and in the USA. Interior completions are done in Little Rock Arkansas.

What a beautifull plane Sam Chui! Yeah i can't forget the first time i was in a private jet myself too, the takeoff experience is a lot more exiting then on the big jet and the experience inside is the very best. As allways thanks for letting us be part of your air adventures!

Dassault the greatest flying machines! Beauty…

Absolutely amazing! I couldn't stop watching. Only the French can do what the French can do and that is elegance!
