Dassault Falcon 900 - trijets forever
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 มิ.ย. 2024
- The Dassault Falcon 900 is a business jet aircraft created by the French company Dassault in the mid-1980s. At one time, it was developed as a continuation of the concept of a medium business jet with three engines in the tail, which was represented by the Falcon 50. The new aircraft was distinguished by increased fuselage dimensions, greater capacity and flight range. The Falcon 900 has become one of the most successful business jets in its class, with more than 500 units delivered. Despite the fact that, technically, it is becoming obsolete and giving way to new models such as the Falcon 7X and 8X, production is still ongoing.

I fly a three engine Falcon. I used to fly Hawkers and Gulfstreams. They all have their pros and cons. The Falcon flies the nicest and has excellent runway performance but that giant empennage makes them a bit of a handful in a gusty crosswind, especially with the long, low wing.
Fun fact: The 900 uses the 50's wing.
Very Cool!
i have long thought the falcon 50 (including the EX) was one of the prettiest planes, even among other business jets.
Can’t bear to watch this as long as the narrator keeps saying Dassooooo
Then don't watch it. Bye. I'm sure he will go and rerecord it for a third time to meet your demands, any moment now.
To b fair I’m just happy it’s not an AI narrator and his accent gives the videos a personality
Falcon trijets are such elegant aircraft
My dad worked in corporate aviation with Falcons, Lears, Citations, Challengers, and Gulfstreams. A lot of the owners and pilots who have to regularly fly over the big oceans due appreciate the 3rd engine despite some of the downsides such as maintaining an “extra” engine.
I suppose that's one of the better downsides when you're flying over the ocean.
Yet it was more fuel efficient than 2 engine jets.
I worked for a large communications company and the 3 top people in that company came to my worksite in the Arctic. I asked the CEO about all 3 of them being on the plane together and he told me they only fly together if they were in a 3 engine jet. The Falcon had about the same footprint of a 737 but with a narrower fuselage. My first thought was most accidents happen during takeoff and landing and the number of engines doesn’t make a difference.
@@Chris_at_Homethe validity of that statement just nulls out the other ones. I was told most accident happen at take off and landing so most people with multi engine just slam into the crash site faster
A catastrophic failure of engine 3 can disable both hydraulic systems and short both electrical buses. Modern dual engine planes are more resilient.
I am glad to have had the opportunity to tour a Falcon 900. Specifically, one of the Falcon Response jets. What a beautiful and comfortable plane. It makes me glad that trijets are still alive. They are such graceful planes.
Did you ever have any opportunities to tour other well-known competitors?
@@davidcheung8595 No, sadly. I just happened to meet the pilot, who gave me a tour of the plane.
@@davidcheung8595
What other private jets would you recommend compared to the Falcon 10X?
It's not a 727 but it's pretty nice. A mini 727.
Dassault = Da-SO
There is an old joke in the piston era, about how many engines you need to be safe. The engineer tapped the captain on the shoulder and report engine number 24 failed, and the captain asked...........on which side?? Even with 4 engines, one Connie was almost dragged into the sea by a prop that refused to be feathered. The captain saved the plane by his idea of cutting off the oil to the prop and caused the shaft to seize and break. I doubt in today's glass cockpit, the pilots have controls of such fine details.
Great video. One comment: Dassault is pronounced “da-soh”
Thank you. Da-Soo was driving me nuts!
Are you sure its not pronounced "Dessous" xD
I used to tell my car stereo customers back in the day when car stereos were a thing....
"If you have room for 2 12" subs, you have room for 3 10" subs."
I just love them all around, from specs to design, flying characteristics to range, efficiency and how pilots love to fly them, and so much more. They are still my favorite airplanes, 900LX and 8X.
It doesn’t need 3 engines. It has been designed with typical redundancy most aircraft have built in to the design. I5 gives confidence to owners who frequently fly over long stretches of water, ie, the Atlantic and Pacific
What a great video. Ive always seen lots of these at London City Airport..It makes so much more sense now given their versality
Great stuff as always, thanks Sky!!
Trijets have this certain something that makes them cooler. BTW the pronunciation is Dass (as in « ass ») - Oh.
This aircraft is why the F-16 is officially named the “Fighting Falcon.” The USAF wanted to call the F-16 “Falcon” in parallel with the F-15 being “Eagle” but Dassault had already grabbed the name for their bizjet.
Sky after all your extra captions showing the Imperial measurement for metric units, you are still missing out thrust. The one thing I can't convert in my head.
For everyone like me, 22.25 kilonewtons per engine is almost exactly 5,000lbs of thrust.
As always, a great film.
Looking forward to the lesser known soviet military aircraft.
The Falcon was in the news this week as the RAF has a flight of them, one of which transported His Majesty King Charles III to Scotland.
Falcon 20 was the first airplane I remember FED EX first started out with. I worked at Denver Beechcraft FBO in the 1970s and FED EX came in every day to refuel with the Falcon 20s. It was a fledging company at the time.
Kinda wild a cargo airline started by using a bunch of private jets
I knew one of the guys that did the cargo door modification to the falcons. I think they still have a falcon hanging in the foyer of one of the buildings in Memphis.
@@machintrucGaming they had to at the time, moving to cargo aircraft required legislative rule changes that FX lobbied for in its early years
The falcons were operated if I remember correctly as air-taxi (part 135), rather than as regularly scheduled (part 121), in the beginning, until FX got the rules changes that it needed.
I worked on the load crew for the last Falcons that flew out of Memphis. I was a student at Memphis State at the time.
The Cockpit shown at 4:05 is not the Honeywell Primus 2000 Cockpit, it is the Honeywell Primus EPIC CDS/R cockpit, it was a retrofit cockpit for the legacy F900B cockpits (SPZ based systems), the Primus 2000 Cockpits have smaller displays with bezels
and Dassault did create software suits to design their planes... that were adopted by many other industries
Yes. CATIA system. Even used by Boeing!!
Hello, Sky! It's great to hear your voice!
Back in the 80s I used to fly all over Saudi Arabia in a Falcon 50 owned by Philips Telecommunications. They had a fleet of Falcons with tail numbers from PH-ILA to PH-ILZ
Fascinating video on the Dassault Falcon 900!
Also, I'd love to see more videos on the Dassault Falcon series as well as other business jet series like the Cessna Citation one day.^^
Trijets are so cool. Trimotors too.
I see one of these airplanes parked at the local airport every week always wondering why the 3 engines. Thank you for the info.
Another great video. Great Job!
Dassssoooo ... really?
I really loved to fly the Falcon 900, back in the 1990's. Great plane.
The show was so special and perfect,thanks a lot to designer for the great effort ,✨🌟✨ Forever love respect and success...Zekik Abdelhamid(Tetouan_North of Morocco)
Very informative
The Lockheed Jetstar has literally 4 engines ☝🤓
Along with pneumatic de icing boots, the weirdest stabiliser trim system imaginable where the fin moved with the stabiliser and so many dials and gauges it’s a wonder it didn’t require a flight engineer.
I remember refueling a Jetstar as a ramp rat back in 74. Those bullet tanks in the wings were pretty thirsty 💥💥
@@daveblevins3322why did they have to turn you guys into rats for that job? That sounds cruel and unethical.
Beautiful bird!
Beautiful and obscene, like Marie Antoinette.
Falcon 900 is a sexy jet😍
3:12 couldve sworn thats not the DGAC logo
I love all your videos! I found out about you by watching the "Wings of Russia" series.
If you're new to the game, check out mentour now!
What a classic 🔥
Owners love the idea of having a third engine - especially when performing a crossing. In the case of the 900, the performance is so-so versus a Global, Gulfstream or the 2000 (with the Pratts). Great looking airplane, but honestly if I were an owner, I'd choose the 7X for the updated engines and performance.
Just my .02
Thank you for utilising the International System of Units commonly known as 'metric' . . .
The Falcon were and still are the best business jet available.
Nope.
The French Directorate General of Civil Aviation logo looks like the Indonesian Ministry of Transportation logo, neat. @3:11
haha thats exactly the same logo
he used the wrong logo in the video, the french one says DGAC
@@raheemabdul1066 Correct, it's not the right logo
Wrong logo of DGAC 😂😂😂😂
that's my thought, i think he put the wrong "dgca" when googling the logo... 🤣
I’ve worked on falcon 20, 100, 50 and 900 EX. I have also worked on Gulfstream II thru V. I’ll take the Gulfstream. Rolls Royce 👍🏻 more power on the pylon.
I'd love to fly one.
This fine Aircraft has everything possible on Board - Just Stunning.!!! "Need's one more extra" Magical Jazzy Pop Music of Ms. Angelina Jordan...
Dassault - the accent is on the first syllable.
Now finally please do the Rafale ?!?
Pretty pleaaaaaase
Great Video Sky.. But a humble request for more of the lesser known Soviet military aircraft please 🙏
Coming soon)
@@SkyshipsEng thanks ))
Interesting video 🙂
For your information, Dassault is prononced [Dass-Oh] ^^
Two if by land, three if by sea.
Yes 👍
A very nice plane. A myth. I love it.
You should look up what “myth” means.
Bellevideohhenri🎉🎉🎉🎉
England's Hawker business jet has been with us for a while has updated over the years with new Technologies
Front two cockpit windows have a different look more Sporty maybe
I like that Falcon if I could only choose
Sky, I love your channel. How long have you been “gone” from Mother Russia? And, lastly, I’ve always heard it pronounced “Da-sew”! Cheers!
I'll forever call them Dasooo, now
moar power!
What’s the clip at 3:53 from?
A third engine in the tail, not three engines in the tail !
I will buy one
"The Dassoooo" 😃
I did a little when chuckle when you used London to give range...and not Paris..
Very interesting, thank you. Detail: Please pronounce Dassault correctly. It is pronounced "DASSO" and not " DASSU".
the Dassault Falcon 900EX private trijet could have done with a slightly stretched variant . . .
For those saying that the pronunciation of Dassault is wrong, how do u pronounce Paris?
How do you pronounce Berwick? Worcestershire? Barnoldswick?
It's not Da-Suu but Das-uu-lt
Yak141 video please
Ive wrenched on an early 90's Falcon 700 a couple times and a Falcon 20. No mistaking them for anything but French! Nice plane though.
Why do you say “Dissoult” instead of “Dassault” (da`so)?
Dasseute 😂 just joking, good to know you keep posting videos ❤
Dassault should bring something to compete with PC24 with gravel landing feature. It's 10x will certainly beat G700.
About 3:45
DASSOU
The era of 3 engine private jets is over, even Dassault gives up and replaces the 900lx and 8x trijets by the 6x and 10x twinjets.
bro put the wrong logo for the dgaf 😭😭, that logo was for indonesian ministry of transportation
If this is the case with trijets, will we ever see new Dash-7s or A340s?
There is approximately zero chance of a Dash-7 revival. Even the restart of Dash-8 (Q400) production is not certain, and it it is far more desirable to customers.
@@brianb-p6586 Yeah that was mostly a joke. Is anyone surviving in the prop-liner business?
@@ABCantonese De Havilland is planning to restart the DHC-8-400, and lots are in service. The alternative is of course the ATR 72. I assume the Embrader, Dornier, and Saab models are long gone from production, but they remain in service. They all seem to be settling into cargo and specialty roles (where efficiency is the most important factor) rather than airline service. Two props, of course...
It is time that the old Falcon 900 is replaced by the new 6x.
03:54 - Is that from a movie?
Wondering that too
It's from french movie "Mon Cousin" released in 2020. Can't find much about it. The film might not even be preserved somewhere
@@machintrucGaming Thanks m8!
This one I don't know but at 18:11 there is a short sequence from the film "Les Chevaliers du Ciel" (The Sky Knights), released in 2005 and based on a famous cartoon in France (Tanguy et Laverdure) 🙂
More engines is more better lol. Yea what he said: No wack side sticks here lol.
I know the answer to the question. So it can speed to create lift.
Actually a twin loses more like 60-65% of the relative thrust because of the drag the rudder deflection causes.
What? No. 😂
Not sure where you got these numbers from, but it's definitely not that bad for rear mounted jet engines. One advantage of this mounting position is a minimal leverage for the engine so asymetric thrust barely moves the plane. Worst are short and slow twin propeller planes. In these planes Those planes sometimes have a Vmc far above the (twin engine) stall speed. If you fly slower and an engine fails, you gut a huge problem. Depending on the type your rudder will cause too much drag and you can't accelerate without loosing altitued, or at full deflection of your rudder you won't be able to fly straight ahead. So yes, if you can't even use full thrust of your remaining engine, you are quickly left with very little thrust.
@@danielrose1392 for sure a rear mounted twin will be much closer to 50%, I was speaking about something like a 757, 767 or 777 that is is heavily loaded
Ironic that most of the people whining about how he pronounces Dassault probably call it "Mickoyin Gurrivich" and get just about every Russian name wrong. Proper names are pronounced differently in different languages anyway.
I would also point out that the town of Saulte St. Marie is pronounced "Soo St. Marie", so clearly that pronunciation exists of that letter grouping.
The ETOPS considerations been less important by operating costs considerations. Twin engined planes had to be more powerful to meet FAA single engine climb requirement. When an engine of a twin failed, you lose by your figures about 50% of the power, but in real life, is actually closer to 60% , and the 3 engine about 40%, because not only the failed engine is not working, but is dead weight and drag and you cannot feather the first stage fan. Also, recent decades of engine failures have taught the industry it is not so much how many engines you have , but how it failed. Jets sometimes failed by exploding and one such explosion of an L1011 cut all three hydraulic systems, and the A380 engine failure damaged other vital systems, luckily it happened close to an airport, then there was the Airbus with a fuel leak over the Atlantic.
The 10x has only 2 "🔥💓"🤣🤣🤣
Taylor Swift has one of these that she uses 10 times or more a month.
Her other aircraft is also a Dassault Falcon but it’s the 7X which is much bigger and has longer range
It's not pronounced "Dassoo" - it's "Dasso", like you pronounce water in French - "Eau" (like "Eau de toilette", and in this configuration, with the engines being at the very back of the plane - they push it, not pull it.
If I could choose my own jet I have been aware of the three engine
Dassault Falcon, and that France don't really make bad aircraft and never have
Should the opportunity arise I would buy an analogue Falcon trinket
Thank you for making me aware of its abilities I would choose this over a gulfstream and also the etops regulations doesn't apply here
I am so pleased you are still making videos
With you I can properly learn about an aircraft which I love immensely and I am educated in the turbojet, thank you sky I wish you well. Mic 🙂
Da-so

Ha ha, showing a clip of my C-5, huh?!? I flew C-5’s for 20 years.
Much like the L1011.. the falcon tri-jets default to thier military heritage then hipster trendy designs of thier competition. Windscreens replacements are simple and cheap with the 700 a single square pane , unlike a g5 which is curved and specific to left or right.
Is this one of those business jets that are Single Pilot certified?
What's a Dasssssoooo?
Why do you need 3 engines? Are they undependable ? Most airliners now have just 2 engines.
Falcon 10 was the best for the French, a tank in the sky.
I’m team North America but the three holers from France are the sexiest business jets there are.
All of the completions (interior, avionics, etc.) deliveries are done in Little Rock, AR.
@@michaelgill7248 Merica!!!
All I want to know if the French President's Dassault Falcon 900 (has 2 of them) can land on - and take of from ... Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier.
😇
All I want to know is why there are no photographs of Microns "partner" under 30.
land once....
Dassault is pronounced "dass o" in one go
L t are silent lol (typical french)
Ye typical french
Like Renault.
@@andreaskole958 Oh, and English is better? Berwick is pronounced "Berrick", Worcestershire is pronounced "Woostersheer"...
As I commented below, English is no better.
@@thhseeking You are right, except that English is a guessing game while in French the pronounciation is related to rules so that you always know how to pronounce any word. In this case for instance: the "au" combination of letters is always pronounced "o" and the last consonants are never pronounced in French language. They are just spelling indicators so to speak. Consequently Dassault (in terms of pronunciation) could be written "Dasso". The same applies to Renault, etc ...😊
I had to make a decision whether to continue watching this video despite the voiceover insisting on calling the manufacturer Dassoo. Still salty about it but I made it to the end. Didn't learn much but the beauty shots were worth it.
His explanation of loss of engine on takeoff is flawed. The certification requirements are such that with one engine out, a twin has a greater climb gradient capability than a tri, and a tri is greater than a quad. So you have greater excess thrust, one engine out, on a twin. All due to the way cert requirements drove the design.
Subsonic private jets are obsolete. A corporate flert today should be made of equally fast props: incredibly economic longer range electric motor, fuel cell drawing hydrogen gas fuel. Who land on 300-350m of runway.
The aeronautical engineers could not design and limit the empty weights of fuselage that suited for 2 engines so the extra one more must be needed.
I cringe every time he says "Dassoo".
I don’t believe it’s pronounced DASOOOOO!!!😂
It’s “da-SO”
@@fartmoderne7205 indeed!
Elvis’ bizjet is being turned into a bus. So sad
