EAG acquires new Dassault Falcon 7X business jet
EAG managed the entire acquisition/replacement process, including new aircraft registration and induction. The new Falcon 7X will be based in Muscat, Oman.
EAG manages one of the region’s largest fleets of business jets and is one of the world’s largest operators of the Falcon 7X, with three of the trijets under management.
The ultra-long range 7X is the fastest-selling Falcon model in the Middle East, accounting for more than 40% of sales. 12 of the advanced trijets are currently in service in the region. More than 30 Falcon aircraft have been delivered to customers in the regionover the past five years, nearly doubling the regional Falcon fleet to 69 aircraft. Dassault Falcon currently operates Authorized Service Centers in Dubai and Jeddah, a spares distribution center in Dubai and a technical office in Jeddah to serve the Middle East market.
Paras P. Dhamecha, executive director at Empire Aviation Group, said: “The Falcon 7X offers exceptional comfort, performance, advanced technology, flexibility and efficiency, and is particularly well suited to conditions in the region. Falcon’s business jet fleet is continuing to grow in the region and the company continues to invest to support Falcon operators and owners, which is one of the key reasons that they are so popular amongst our aircraft owners. This is also a good time for existing aircraft owners to upgrade with business jet prices starting to edge higher.”
