Verdict per regime (private, charter dry and wet) across 465 Brazilian public runways, with the margin in meters.

Starter feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.

Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

History

  1. 1970First flight
  2. 1973 - Dassault's first light jet

    Launched in 1973, the Falcon 10 was Dassault's first entry-level aircraft, designed as a smaller version of the Falcon 20. It kept the French aerodynamic DNA and the robust construction of the Mirage school, attracting owners looking for fighter handling in a business jet.

  3. 1973FAA certification
  4. 1983 - Falcon 100 brought a glass cockpit

    The Falcon 100 evolution, certified in the 80s, introduced a Sperry glass cockpit, a higher MTOW and an enlarged baggage compartment. It was one of the first light jets to offer EFIS avionics as standard.

  5. 1990End of production

Model with no documented lineage in the manufacturer's line.

Curiosities and highlights

Benefits

Mach 0.87, midsize jet performance

It reached Mach 0.87 and a maximum speed of 494 kt, numbers comparable to the midsize jets of the time. A rate of climb of 4,600 fpm and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft allowed it to get above commercial traffic quickly.

Robust French construction

A structure derived from Dassault's military experience made the Falcon 10 a benchmark in durability. Many units already exceed 20,000 flight hours, with airframes still viable for retrofit.

Limitations

Cramped cabin by modern standards

With a cabin of 3.93 m × 1.52 m and a height of 1.46 m, the Falcon 10 falls short of modern light jets. The typical 4-passenger configuration is the real comfort level, with 7 possible but tight.

Curiosities

Nicknamed Mystère 10 in France

Originally marketed as the Mystère 10 in the European market, it inherited the name of the Dassault Mystère fighters. Only in 1990 did Dassault unify the Falcon nomenclature globally.
