It has excellent standard-day runway performance, transatlantic range and is a joy to fly. But the original 3,700-pound-thrust AlliedSignal TFE731-3 engines hot-and-high takeoff performance and the jet's climb and cruise performance were less than best in class. Converting to the more powerful TFE731-4 and making associated retrofits eliminates those shortcomings.http://www.aviationweek.com/avnow/news/channel_businessweekly_story.jsp?id=news/falcon1228... |
