Dassault Falcon has received Type Certificate for the Falcon 7X from the Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in India, confirming that the Falcon 7X meets the rigorous safety standards outlined by the national airworthiness authorities and allows registration of the Falcon 7X in the country.
Falcon 2000 and 900 models are already certified in India and around 16 large cabin Falcons are in service in the country.
The first Falcon 7X in India will be delivered in January 2010 to Religare Voyages Limited, a charter company based in New Delhi and part of a multi-billion dollar integrated transnational promoter group straddling financial services, diagnostics, health & wellness, and IT services, globally. Religare Voyages currently operates a Falcon 2000, together with smaller jets and turboprops.
A dozen of others large cabin Falcons including several 7X aircraft are currently on order for customers in India. The performance of the Falcons are especially valued in India, where short airfields, elevated runways, and high temperatures are common. Dassault has also established in the last few years a spares center in Mumbai, along with a customer service team based in Mumbai, a liaison office in Delhi, and service centers approved by Indian DGCA.
