VIP Completions unveiled the interior of a completely refurbished Dassault Falcon 7X. Acquisition of this aircraft was brokered by SmartJets. From beginning to end, the process was completed within just 16 weeks – approximately eight weeks for acquisition and eight weeks for refurbishment. The Dassault Falcon 7X is a long-range business jet with a 5,950-nautical-mile range. First introduced in 2007, approximately 270 7Xs are in-service worldwide today. Characterized by Dassault’s unique ‘trijet’ powerplant configuration, the 7X’s renowned performance delivers a maximum speed of Mach 0.9. This 7X offers exceptional levels of luxury, comfort, personalized décor and the conveniences of latest-generation technologies. It comfortably seats 12 passengers.

Ben Shirazi, President, VIP Completions and President, SmartJets commented: “We are particularly proud of this project because it shows how quickly and efficiently our companies can work together – in just 16 weeks, we went from a letter of intent to an entirely new bespoke interior. First, we guided our client through a detailed acquisition process in order to ensure that they selected the optimal aircraft under optimal conditions – including closing in time to benefit from 2023 bonus depreciation rules.Once acquisition was final, we worked closely with our client to create a customized interior, using the finest designer brands and materials. Combining an aesthetic that reflects individual taste and style with the latest technologies, we delivered a superb and unique in-flight experience. Completing a refurb of this scope in just eight weeks is exceptionally fast by industry standards.
