The FAA and EASA have approved use of Dassault\u2019s advanced\ndual head-up display known as FalconEye, on the company\u2019s Falcon 8X very long\nrange trijet, adding to the aircraft\u2019s industry-leading low visibility\noperations capability. The dual HUD configuration will ultimately permit an\nEFVS-to-land capability in near zero-zero conditions, pending new EASA\nregulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe bottom line is that this approval results in enhanced\nsafety and more capability for Falcons equipped with Dassault\u2019s industry-first\nFalconEye technology,\u201d said Carlos Brana, Executive Vice President, Civil\nAircraft at Dassault Aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dassault Aviation has been an undisputed leader in the\ndevelopment of HUD technology. In 2016, Dassault introduced FalconEye, the\nfirst head-up display (HUD) system to combine synthetic, database-driven\nterrain mapping and actual thermal and low-light camera images. Today, single\nHUD-equipped aircraft with FalconEye can fly non-precision approaches to 100\nfeet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A number of 8X operators have already scheduled installation\nof the new mod, which allows both pilots to share the same synthetic and\nenhanced vision view, enabling one to act as \u201cpilot flying\u201d while the other\nmonitors flight conditions. Dual HUDs enhance situational awareness while\nsimplifying training at the same level of experience and qualification for\napproaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dual HUD option will be certified on the Falcon 6X, due\nto enter service mid-2023, and on the ultra-long-range Falcon 10X, planned for\ncertification in late 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The dual HUD on the Falcon 10X will take the dual HUD\nconfiguration to an even more advanced level in which it can serve as the\n\u201cprimary means of pilot operation,\u201d freeing pilots to configure the instrument\npanel\u2019s primary flight display for other uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, Dassault\u2019s current HUD and FalconEye equipped\naircraft can now operate to 200 feet with a 30 percent runway visual range\n(RVR) credit without any flight department specific EASA approval required.\nEASA eased approval requirements after taking into account HUD and EFVS\ntechnology improvements through the past 20 years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
