Operational context
The Dakar – Addis-Abeba sector links Blaise Diagne (GOBD) to Bole International (HAAB) over 6,100 km great-circle, about 7h12 airborne in a Falcon 8X. The constraint here is rarely range but slot and parking availability at Bole International (3800 m runway). At this range a Falcon 8X avoids a tech stop and preserves cabin comfort.
