Dassault Falcon 8X for Sale

Three engines. One short runway. No apologies.

Three engines, and a short runway. The Falcon 8X is the longest-range Dassault in service: 6,450 nm with a 13 m cabin, yet it lands in about 680 m. Max Verstappen was widely reported in 2025 to have bought a new one.

It is a stretched Falcon 7X with more fuel, PW307D engines and digital fly-by-wire. It first flew in February 2015 and entered service in 2016. ICCJET sources Falcon 8Xs on and off market.

Routes

10 routes the way an owner flies them

The Falcon 8X duel. Pick a rival, pick a route and race them. Gold is the Falcon 8X. Watch who lands nonstop and who stops for fuel, then switch to Who gets where: the gold cities are the ones only the Falcon 8X reaches nonstop.

Distances are great-circle from the business aviation airport of each city; times use 459 kt plus 20 minutes, in still air. Nonstop means the distance is under 90% of the 6,450 nm range, a margin for winds. A fuel stop adds about an hour on the ground.

Ride quality

Turbulence: how the Falcon 8X rides

No aircraft is turbulence-proof. A heavy, long-winged jet like the Falcon 8X rides through chop far more calmly than a light jet, and its ceiling of 51,000 ft puts it above most weather and above the busy airline levels. Its ceiling is 51,000 ft, above the busy airline levels. Fly-by-wire flight controls smooth out pilot inputs and protect the flight envelope.

In the press

Who flies a Falcon 8X

The Falcon 8X is chosen by people who like to fly into difficult airports. These are press reports and public orders; ICCJET never discusses its own clients.

Max Verstappen Widely reported in 2025 to have bought a new Falcon 8X
French Air and Space Force The Falcon 8X Archange, a signals intelligence version, first flew in July 2025

What the list tells a buyer: a Formula 1 champion and an air force chose the same airframe. Three engines and short-field performance open airports others cannot use.

Incidents

Safety record and history

Falcon 8X No Falcon 8X accident found in the public sources checked as of October 2026
Family In May 2011 a Falcon 7X had an uncommanded pitch trim runaway and landed safely; EASA grounded the 7X fleet until a fix was in place

The provocative view: the most famous Falcon incident ended in a safe landing and a fleet-wide fix. A three-engine jet gives one more margin than its twin-engine rivals.

The 8X flies about 500 nm farther with a longer cabin and the same short-field skill. A pre-owned 7X costs much less. Choose the 8X if your longest leg sits just beyond 7X range; the 7X if it does not.

FAQ

Dassault Falcon 8X for sale: questions

How much does a Falcon 8X cost?

A pre-owned Falcon 8X price depends on year, hours, engine programmes and cabin. ICCJET gives a current indication on request.

What is the range of the Falcon 8X?

6,450 nm (11,945 km), according to published manufacturer figures.

Can you stand up in a Falcon 8X?

Yes. The cabin is 1.88 m high, so a 1.80 m adult walks the aisle upright. The average American man is about 1.75 m.

Can a Falcon 8X fly Riyadh to New York nonstop?

Yes: about 5,661 nm against 6,450 nm of range, about 12 h 40 min in still air.

Why does the Falcon 8X have three engines?

Three smaller engines give an extra margin on long over-water legs and help short-field performance. The trade-off is three engine histories to maintain.

Who flies a Falcon 8X?

Max Verstappen was widely reported in 2025 to have bought one, and the French Air and Space Force flies the Archange version. ICCJET never discusses its own clients.

Can ICCJET find a Falcon 8X that is not advertised?
