The wonders of the Falcon 8X never cease. It brings seemingly opposite qualities into perfect harmony. No wonder. It was engineered that way. Here’s how it performs in the air.
Properly executed, the trijet configuration is more fuel efficient, making Falcons among the most ecologically green jets in operation. Also, government certification testing for takeoff emergencies measures the aircraft's performance with one engine not operating.
That’s definitely correct. They aren’t developing more trijets unfortunately. The 900 and 7x and 8x are still in production so hopefully there will still be some trijets flying around in the next coming decades
