Photo Comment

The unique Falcon 30 demonstrator appearing at the 1974 SBAC show. In the mid sixties, Dassualt had plans to scale up the Mystère 20 design to carry 32 - 40 passengers and Eastern Airlines even expressed an interest in buying between 20 and 40 examples. The project was abandoned in 1975 thanks to high engine noise and the oil crisis, but the airframe is preserved at Bordeaux-Merignac
