T
he business world encompasses
a vast expanse, especially when
traveling for business purposes
from major cities in North
America and Europe to the Asia Pacific
region. e distance between Tokyo and
Paris is approximately 6,000 miles, while
Sydney to New York spans roughly 10,000
miles, resulting in non-stop flights lasting
12 to 15 hours. Dassault engineers pondered
how they could enhance the passenger
experience during these extensive journeys.
eir solution aims to make passengers feel
more at home or in their office rather than
in a business jet.
e 10X aircraft's cabin pressurization
maintains a low altitude of 3,000 feet at a
cruising height of 41,000 feet. is lower
cabin pressure altitude helps reduce fatigue,
distinguishing the 10X cabins as superior
to airline cabins, which typically operate at
altitudes of 6,000 to 8,000 feet—moreover,
the 10X features oversized windows, which
flood the spacious cabin with natural light.
Passengers can control the LED lighting,
allowing for various settings, such as soft
reading light or gradual sunrises, which aid
in adjusting their circadian rhythms.
