About the Dassault Falcon 2000LXS
Overview
The Dassault Falcon 2000LXS is the current-production flagship of the Falcon 2000 family, certified in 2013 and delivering from 2014. It takes the wide-body Falcon 2000 airframe to its most capable form: Pratt & Whitney Canada PW308C engines, the Honeywell Primus Epic EASy II flight deck, blended winglets, and inboard wing slats that together give a 4,000 nm range with short-field manners no other intercontinental-range jet in the class can match. It is the long-range end of the PW308C generation that began with the 2000EX (2003) and 2000EX EASy, ran through the 2000DX and the winglet-equipped 2000LX, and now splits into the short-field 2000S and this long-range LXS.
Key Features for GA Buyers
- 4,000 nm range with a wide cabin. The LXS crosses the North Atlantic with a true stand-up, flat-floor cabin shared with the larger Falcon 900, a combination most super-mids cannot offer.
- Short-field access for an intercontinental jet. The inboard slats let the LXS use runways under 4,700 ft at full weight, opening airports that bracket-competitive long-range jets reach only with a payload penalty.
- EASy II flight deck. The Honeywell Primus Epic EASy II deck with its cursor-driven interface is the modern Falcon cockpit, a clear generational step over the original 2000’s Pro Line 4.
- Low fuel burn for the class. The Falcon aerodynamic pedigree gives the LXS a fuel burn that routinely beats smaller competitors on the same mission.
Trade-offs
- Full-fuel payload is modest. Loaded to 4,000 nm of fuel the cabin payload tightens; long legs with a full cabin are a trade, as on every aircraft at this range.
- Two-crew, program-maintained. Like every jet in the class it is a two-pilot airplane on an enrolled engine program; budget for crew and the PW308C program rate rather than a piston-style overhaul fund.
- Avionics depth. The EASy II deck is powerful but takes real training to master, a consideration for crews transitioning from a conventional panel.
