“Our mission is to provide assistance on all operational aspects relative to the fleet and provide pilot assistance before, during and after delivery of a new aircraft” said Gérard Dailloux. “Our team consists of about 20 highly qualified pilots and engineers” he added. “And our motto is fly like you train, train like you fly!”. Dailloux’s team will be working closely with Dassault’s training providers to provide the highest level of customer training. Special emphasis will be placed on using lessons learned from fleet operations and feedback from the training itself.

Gérard Dailloux brings 40 years of flight operations experience to the job. He most recently served within Dassault Aviation as Vice President, Safety of Flight for both civil and military aircraft. Prior to that, he had a 16 year career as a naval aviator on Etendard IV, Super Etendard, and Falcon 10. He joined Dassault in 1984 where he held several positions such as technical writer of the Aircraft Flight Manual for Mirage 2000 and Mirage IV. He joined the Safety of Flight department in 1988.

He is based in Dassault Aviation’s Saint-Cloud headquarters, in France and reports directly to Olivier Villa.
