We hope to initiate the launch of a future Parisian “Aeronautic Valley”.”

The Dassault Falcon Service has been based at the Paris-Le Bourget hub for 45 years. It is first and foremost a historical location, however, if business aviation is developed there, it will have been thanks to the assets of this exceptional site, which brings together all aviation professions. The multiple services, reinforced by the logistical strength of Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport enables us to offer our clients a high quality of service.”

The Pontoise aerodrome meets our needs well, as it is very “business-oriented”. It caters to both business aviation and a number of regular airlines that serve the major business centres. It is for this reason that we have a clientele and a range of services of a very high quality. The simplicity when realising take-offs and landings, as well as the ability to gain direct access to the planes by car are real assets for us and bestow on Pontoise the status of prestige aerodrome.”
