Dassault Falcon has received Type Certificate for the Falcon 7X from the Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) in India.
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 and wellness, and IT services, globally. Religare Voyages currently operates a Falcon 2000, together with smaller jets and turboprops.
"India has been one of our strongest markets over several years so Falcon 7X type certification is of real significance," said John Rosanvallon, President and CEO of Dassault Falcon. "As the country's economy continues to strengthen, there will be an increasing need to connect India efficiently with other major centres of trade around the world."
