The Falcon 900LX: a trijet at the end of its production run
The Falcon 900LX is the last version of a family Dassault has built for about four decades. Dassault no longer lists it in its current line-up, and recent reports describe 2026 as its final delivery year. The Falcon 6X is now Dassault's main offer in this size of cabin. Many 900LXs remain in charter service. Its engines are the same TFE731-60 type as the earlier 900EX.
What sets it apart
Each of its three Honeywell engines gives about 5,000 lb of thrust. Blended winglets from Aviation Partners were the main change from the earlier 900EX, and they gave it more range. Published range is 4,750 nm, with seating for up to fourteen.
The third engine gives redundancy over water and remote terrain.
Which of our routes the Falcon 900LX suits
For Lagos to London, at about 2,691 nm, the 900LX flies with ample reserve. Lagos to Geneva and Lagos to Nice are shorter still.
Several 900LXs appear on London City's list of approved operator aircraft. That makes a City departure possible with the right operator.
The Falcon 900LX against its class siblings
The G450 has two engines and slightly less published range. The Legacy 650E has a three-zone cabin but about 850 nm less range. The 900LX is the choice when three engines or a London City departure matter most.
