The Falcon 50 is a three reactor aircraft designed and produced by the French Company MARCEL DASSAULT. Due to its characteristics and qualities, flexibility of employment, this aircraft offers safety under all circumstances and has an excellent performance at cruising speed. The use of three engines allows it to over-fly hostile environment areas such as oceans and deserts. It is able to fly distances of about 5500 Km without the necessity of technical stopovers for refuelling. The existence of a third engine is a guarantee of safety, since the Falcon 50 is able to fly with only two engines and still keep all airborne systems in good operational condition. Equipped with last generation instruments, it shows a diversified panoply of information on a single monitor. This allows the aircraft to approach the runways in minimum visibility conditions.
