Charter of a Dassault Falcon 10 starts at $2,500 per flight hour. Certified in 1973, the Falcon 10 was one of Dassault's earliest business jets and remains a proven, efficient light jet today. It seats up to six passengers with a range of 1,331 nautical miles and a 490-knot cruise speed. Twin Honeywell TFE731 turbofan engines and high-lift wing devices give it genuinely short takeoff and landing performance for its class. Hogani Jets coordinates each Falcon 10 charter through licensed Part 135 operators.

Dassault began developing the Falcon 10 in the late 1960s. The goal was a smaller, more efficient jet than its larger Falcon 20 sibling. It earned FAA certification in 1973.

More than five decades later, the design still holds up. A compact airframe, quick cruise speed, and short-field capability keep the Falcon 10 relevant today.

Dassault certified the Falcon 10 in 1973, following a design process that began in the late 1960s. Twin Honeywell TFE731 engines and high-lift wing devices define this aircraft's performance.

The Falcon 10 is a genuinely vintage design. Its avionics suite reflects 1970s-era technology: dual analog navigation and communication systems, not a modern integrated glass cockpit.

This does not affect the aircraft's core strengths. The airframe, engines, and high-lift wing devices that made the Falcon 10 efficient still perform the same way today.

High-lift devices on the wings, unique to the Falcon 10, allow quicker and smoother takeoffs and landings. This translates into genuinely short-field capability today.

Takeoff distance does increase meaningfully at higher, hotter airports, a real factor to weigh for mountain or high-elevation destinations. Your operator accounts for this in trip planning.

A light jet typically trades cabin space for a lower hourly rate and access to smaller airports. The Falcon 10 adds genuinely fast cruise speed to that trade-off.

  • Lower cost: $2,500 per hour, competitive within the light jet category.
  • Fast cruise: 490 knots, among the quicker light jets available for charter.
  • Short-field capable: high-lift wing devices support shorter takeoff and landing distances.
  • Best mission: fast regional trips for up to 6 passengers wanting speed and efficiency.

The Falcon 10 seats up to six passengers, typically five in a four-seat-plus-bench configuration.

  • Six cabin windows bring in natural light throughout the compact cabin.
  • A lavatory is included as standard equipment.
  • Baggage capacity is modest; confirm exact allowance with your operator before booking.
  • There is no flight attendant on this aircraft category; service is limited to what the pilots can offer.

The Falcon 10 performs best on fast regional routes where its cruise speed and short-field capability matter alongside cost.

The most common cross-shop comparisons are the Eclipse 550 and the Phenom 100EV. The Eclipse 550 is a lower-cost VLJ; the Phenom 100EV has a roomier cabin. The Falcon 10 wins on outright cruise speed and cabin size.
