The French company's philosophy of pitching its product line at the top end of the market continued to reap rewards as demand for Falcons is soaring. The large-cabin 2000EX fleet has risen by nearly 25% to 141, the 900DX from 10 to 18, the long-range 900EX from 177 to 195 and the Falcon 7X from six to 11 aircraft. Production of the ultra-long-range business jet has begun in earnest, with 40 aircraft earmarked for delivery next year and 42 in 2010. The census also shows a three-aircraft rise in the Falcon 50EX tally since last year's census as the last of the super-midsize business jets entered service. The aircraft will be replaced in around 2013 by Dassault's Falcon SMS, which is under development.
