1983 - 1991 Falcon 200
The Falcon 20 and 200 family remains Dassault's most successful business jet program thus far, with more than 500 built. Charles Lindbergh discovered the original Falcon 20 prototype on one of his visits to Dassault in the early 1960's. He knew that Juan Trippe, Chairman of Pan Am, was looking for a business jet to market in the U.S. Working with Pan Am engineers Dassault hung brand new GE CF700 fanjet engines that produced 4,150 pounds of thrust. These were the first fan jet engines on a business jet and the prototype was called the Falcon 20C. 177 of these aircraft were built. The first GE powered 20 flew on New Year's Day 1965. The Falcon 200 is a re-engined development of the 20 series. A converted Falcon 20 served as the prototype, and first flew with the new Honeywell ATF 3-6A-4C engines on April 30, 1980.
