Dassault taps Honeywell for cockpit upgrade on Falcon 2000 EASy
Dassault to offer upgraded cockpit technology on in-production Falcon 2000LXS as well as retrofit option for Falcon 2000-EASy series jets.
Dassault Aviation has selected Honeywell Aerospace’s EASy IV avionics as an update for its Falcon 2000 EASy aircraft.
The upgrade will modernise the Falcon 2000 cockpit with new capabilities designed to improve pilot awareness, streamline operations and support future regulatory requirements.
Dassault plans to offer the EASy IV flightdeck on the in-production Falcon 2000LXS, as well as making it available as a retrofit option for all Falcon 2000 EASy-series aircraft.
The selection builds on a long-standing collaboration between Honeywell Aerospace and Dassault and extends advanced cockpit technologies already available on the Falcon 6X, 7X and 8X jets.
Linnea Whisler, president, commercial original equipment at Honeywell Aerospace, says: “The selection of EASy IV for the Falcon 2000 demonstrates our shared commitment to continuously improving safety and the flying experience while helping operators meet evolving operational and regulatory requirements.”
The upgrade to the EASy IV flight deck introduces a range of enhancements designed to improve situational awareness and operational efficiency.
Features include upgraded cockpit displays, enhanced navigation capabilities, upgraded weather detection capabilities and expanded connectivity features.
“Dassault Aviation has consistently upgraded the 2000-series to improve performance, capability, comfort and connectivity,” says Dassault chief executive Eric Trappier.
“This latest step keeps the flightdeck at the leading edge and will keep the 2000-series a strong market competitor in the years ahead. It modernises the existing fleet and enhances aircraft value.”
