Charter of a Dassault Falcon 7X starts at $9,000 to $13,000 per flight hour. The Falcon 7X made its first flight on May 5, 2005. EASA and FAA type certificates were issued on April 27, 2007. It carries up to 16 passengers across a 5,950-nautical-mile range at 488 knots. Three Pratt & Whitney Canada PW307A engines produce 6,402 lbf each. Hogani Jets coordinates each Falcon 7X charter through licensed Part 135 operators.

The Falcon 7X introduced two firsts to business aviation simultaneously. It was the first business jet to use a digital fly-by-wire flight control system. That system was developed from Dassault's Rafale and Mirage 2000 fighter programs. It was also the first commercial aircraft of any kind designed entirely on a virtual platform.

The Falcon 7X entered service in June 2007. The aircraft was developed using digital design and engineering tools, with no physical prototype used during its development.

Dassault has produced the Falcon 7X since 2007. The 100th aircraft was delivered in November 2010. The type is in continuous production.

The Dassault Falcon 7X is an ultra long range jet first certified in April 2007. It carries up to 16 passengers across a 5,950-nautical-mile range at 488 knots. Three Pratt & Whitney Canada PW307A engines produce 6,402 lbf each. Maximum takeoff weight is 70,000 lbs and service ceiling is 51,000 feet. The aircraft was the first business jet designed entirely on a virtual platform.

Two engineering achievements gave the Falcon 7X a distinctive place in business aviation.

First, the Falcon 7X features a digital fly-by-wire flight control system. The Digital Flight Control System (DFCS) provides control of the aircraft's flight surfaces and incorporates advanced flight envelope protection. It is designed to reduce pilot workload and support smooth, efficient flight operations.

Second, the Falcon 7X was developed using a virtual design and engineering platform. The aircraft was designed using digital tools throughout its development process, without relying on a traditional physical prototype.

The Falcon 7X's digital flight controls and short-field capabilities support access to airports with demanding operational requirements, including London City Airport and high-altitude destinations such as Aspen and Toluca.

The Falcon 8X is the direct successor of the 7X. Dassault announced the 8X in December 2014. It stretched the 7X fuselage by 1.1 meters (3.6 feet), added the PW307D engines, and upgraded to EASy III avionics.

For charter passengers, the 7X delivers the same rate tier as the 8X. The 8X adds 500 nm of range and a longer cabin. The 7X is the right choice when its 5,950 nm covers the route. It offers high fleet availability at the same rate tier as the 8X.

The Falcon 7X seats up to 16 passengers across three cabin zones. Standard configurations run 12 to 14.

  • Three zones: forward work area, center dining and conference space, aft lounge and rest area.
  • 28 large oval windows flood the cabin with natural light at every seat position.
  • Full stand-up headroom at 6.2 feet throughout the 39.1-foot cabin length.
  • Seats recline into flat-bed positions for overnight sectors.
  • A certified flight attendant is included on all Falcon 7X charters at Hogani Jets.

The Falcon 7X cabin is 39.1 feet long, 7.7 feet wide, and 6.2 feet tall. Cabin pressurization holds a 5,970-foot equivalent altitude at cruise. The aircraft seats up to 16 passengers with 140 cubic feet of pressurized baggage capacity.

The Falcon 7X has a published range of 5,950 nautical miles, supporting transatlantic routes and select intercontinental sectors. Los Angeles to London is within the aircraft's published range.
