FAA orders Falcon 2000EX jets to fix power system that fails during landing

The US aviation regulator issued a mandatory safety fix for a specific business jet model after discovering that both main electrical generators can fail simultaneously when pilots lower the flaps to land. Pilots must now follow updated procedures in their flight manual to prevent losing electrical power during approach — the most dangerous phase of flight.

This is a narrow fix for a specific aircraft model, not a signal of systemic change. The FAA found a concrete failure mode (dual generator loss during flap extension) and is closing it with a procedure change. It matters because simultaneous loss of main electrical power during approach would disable instruments, autopilot, and hydraulic systems. What's notable is that this failure wasn't caught in the original design — it took an actual incident report to expose it.
