    The most amiable pilot I have ever met. A true professional and a gentleman I considered a friend.

    I flew the first simulator in NJ back in 2007 with the EASY I cockpit and it was great stuff, and getting in the real thing at TEB was awesome. I just can't imagine all these nice upgrades. I do hope the CCD was redesigned, it was a little cumbersome. I could see the advantages of the HUD in this case. It takes discipline to look down and up in other aircraft where the flight information is not represented the same way, and adjust quickly. Excellent demon, thanks.

    my brother flew the twin otter in the artic, in the bush, 220 knotts, 14,000 flying hours, this 7x would be quite a eye opener, a fellow around here has his own 3 engine falcon

    The Falcon display panel was smooth while this video jumped around too much.

    So, let's say the computer controlling this fails, what do you do then? I see no backup altimiter or Horizon. Maybe I am missing something; however, it seems to me that for $50,000,000 I could get that just in case. If you know what I mean.

      at Dassault, everything is done so that there are multiple redundancies!! on the Rafale, there are 3 different power supplies, those of the two engines, a power supply coming from a generator whose air intake can be seen just behind the canopy, and there are still batteries! you should worry more about Boeings which have an unfortunate tendency to crash!! example B737!! LOL ahhhh when bad faith holds you!!

      at the beginning of the FEDEX company, they bought FALCONs, one day, one of their FALCON landed on an airport, the next day, the fog invaded the airport, planes were parked on the runway but the person responsible for the tower in the morning was not informed about the presence of these planes on the runway by the other manager who was resting, the FALCON had to take off again at all costs, the manager in the tower gave his authorization for takeoff, the two pilots lines up on the runway, pushes the engines, the FALCON gains speed, but before reaching VR, the pilots realize that the runway is cluttered with planes, unable to stop before the accident, the FALCON goes through all the planes, destroying everything in its path, while on the FALCON, there was only damaged paint, it is the boss of FEDEX who tells this story and who ends by saying that his FALCON was damaged. 'resistance to all tests!! I have more confidence in DASSAULT engineers than in a clown on UA-cam who doesn't even know what a DASSAULT plane is!
