All Current Production Falcons Now Certified for Steep Approach and Capable of Operations at London City Airport Dassault has received approval from the FAA for steep approaches on all Falcon 900 EASy (900EX EASy/DX/LX ) and Falcon 2000 EASy (2000EX EASy/DX/LX) series models. Both model series had already received steep approach certification from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). With the most recent approvals, the entire current production Falcon fleet is now certified for steep approaches, which permits aircraft to operate at restricted airports with approach angles of up to 6 degrees. “With the ability to make steep approaches into challenging airports, while complying with noise abatement procedures, Falcons continue to be the most flexible and capable of business aircraft,” said John Rosanvallon, President and CEO of Dassault Falcon. “Dassault Falcon is the only business aircraft manufacturer to have both EASA and FAA steep approach approval for all of its in-production models.”
