The first Falcon 6X will roll out on December 8th in Bordeaux-Merignac, France. And the first flight is plan for early next year, so the program is on track. This is “thanks to the hard work of the [6X] development team, which has steadily moved forward over the summer,” the French aircraft manufacturer said.
