Upgraded: Jacques Chauvet

Replaces Predecessor

Dassault Falcon announced Wednesday Jacques Chauvet has been promoted to Vice President, Falcon Customer Service-Eastern Hemisphere. He is based in St. Cloud, France and is now responsible for all Falcon related customer service activities for Falcon operators in Europe, Africa, India and the Middle East.

He joins Gerry Goguen, Senior Vice President, Customer Service for the Western Hemisphere based at Teterboro Airport in New Jersey. Chauvet replaced Claude Frey who retired after serving with Dassault since 1965.

Chauvet started his career with Dassault in 1980 in the prototype workshop. Originally his focus was on fighter prototypes such as the Mirage F1, Mirage III, Mirage IV P and the Mirage 2000 and as well as the Rafale. He was eventually named a Deputy Director at Dassault Falcon Service (Paris-Le Bourget) before being promoted to Deputy Vice President, Customer Service in 1999. He served as Frey's deputy since that time.

"With the rapidly expanding Falcon fleet of over 1700 jets flying throughout the globe, it was critical to keep our customer service department under strong leadership," said John Rosanvallon, President and CEO of Dassault Falcon. "Jacques' vast experience as deputy and proven skills in working with our customers uniquely qualified him for the challenges ahead. Both he and Gerry Goguen will work closely together as a team to lead our worldwide customer service network and continue the long tradition of exemplary customer service."

Frey started his career with Dassault in 1965 after graduating from the Ecole Nationale Superieure d'Aeronautique. His first assignment was working on the development of the MD-620 tactical missile. In 1971, he joined the flight test team on the Mercure, a 150-seater short-haul aircraft, where he was responsible for systems integration and certification.

Frey continued on some of Dassault's best-known aircraft including systems certification for the Falcon 50 and the development and production of the HU-25 for the U.S. Coast Guard. He was appointed Support Manager for Civil Aircraft in 1986 and elevated to Vice President, Customer Service in 1992.

"Our worldwide customer service organization has positioned the Falcon operator at the heart of the company. They know that they can get prompt answers anywhere, anytime from our team of engineers that are among the best at Dassault," said Frey at his retirement celebration. "Their dedication and skill has impressed me over the years and is the reason why we've accomplished so much."
