"This is a significant milestone for the Falcon 7X program and
Dassault. The time has arrived for China to emerge as a strong market for
business aviation," said John Rosanvallon, President and CEO of Dassault
Falcon. "In anticipation of this growth, Dassault has increased customer
support significantly and increased marketing activity throughout China and
Asia." Last month, Dassault delivered the first Falcon 7X to India.

Dassault's Falcon 7X demonstrator recently completed a two
week marketing tour through Asia and Australia culminating in its first
appearance at the Singapore Air Show. During that time, 28 legs were flown
over sixteen days with five off days. The aircraft accumulated 76 hours of
pilot and executive demonstration flight time. "The response was very
positive," added Rosanvallon.

The 5,950 nm Falcon 7X can connect Beijing with Paris, Sydney
and San Francisco. It can also connect Shanghai with Auckland, Seattle, and
London.

Award Winning

Last month, the Falcon 7X BMW Interior Option was awarded the
prestigious "Good Design" award by The Chicago Athenaeum and The European
Centre for Architecture Art Design. The award noted features including
"uncompromising comfort for temperature monitoring, thermal controls and
custom-crafted interior furnishings."

The Falcon 7X is the first and only business jet to
incorporate a digital flight control system which provides more positive,
operational safety and a smoother flight. The aircraft also comes standard
with the award-winning EASy flight deck. The EASy flight deck is designed to
reduce pilot workload and improve pilot interaction through elevated
situational awareness in the cockpit.

Announced at the Paris Air Show in 2001, the Falcon 7X was the
first large cabin jet to be simultaneously certified by the European Aviation
Safety Agency (EASA) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) on April 27,
2007
. It's powered by three highly reliable and efficient Pratt & Whitney
Canada
PW307A engines which help to give the Falcon 7X a greater airport
performance and increased peace of mind during long over water flights. The
Falcon 7X also has 15-30% greater fuel efficiency than other aircraft in the
large cabin, long range class. With a range of 5,950 nm (eight passengers,
M.80 with NBAA IFR reserves), the aircraft can comfortably connect 95% of the
commonly used business aviation city pairs worldwide.
