Dassault Expects To Deliver About 70 Falcons in 2013

Dassault delivered 66 Falcons last year, up from 63 the year before, the company announced today. The manufacturer expects to deliver “around 70 Falcons” this year. Last year, salespeople took orders for 58 business jets, a notable increase from 36 in 2011. The Falcon market is “still convalescent,” Dassault CEO Eric Trappier said. He hopes for a recovery, especially in the U.S. Some regions, such as South America, Russia and Northern Europe, are “very active,” he added.
