Remarks (Bemerkungen)
Based on the Falcon 2000EX, the 2000LX features improved performance, mainly due to the installation of winglets. These were developed by Aviation Partners, which woll offer them for retrofit as well. Some structural and systems modifications will be necessary to accommodate the winglets. Reinforcing straps will be added to the upper and lower wing panels and the servo actuator door will be reinforced. Dassault claimed a drag reduction of as much as 5% with the new wing aerodynamics. The 2000LX will thus be able to connect New York to Moscow; Paris to Delhi and Hong Kong to Brisbane.
The EASy flight deck will be standard on the Falcon 2000LX.
History (Geschichte)
A modified Falcon 2000 with winglets began its flight tests in August 2006. By May 2007 it had accomplished 130 flight hours.
The Falcon 2000LX was officially announced on 21 May 2007, at the 7th Annual EBACE Convention in Geneva. Dassault said that the 2000LX is expected to be certified by the end of 2007 and will replace the Falcon 2000EX starting with 2010 deliveries. For 2000EX deliveries scheduled in 2008 and 2009, customers can choose the winglets as an option.
