A little strange, looks like the leading edge devices are out, but not the trailing edge (flaps). But really can't see for sure. Nor, did I see the lift dumpers (speed brakes) deploy, nor any evidence of heavy braking (anti-skid). How about reverse thrust, does this Falcon come with reverse. If so why no buckets? Not really sure what I am looking at here. Pretty jet though - all Falcons are.
At the Dassault Falcon Jet Completion Center in Little Rock, AR , they do High Speed Taxi tests as part of their final Flight Testing by running it down the runway like this prior to customer delivery. This looks like it could be that. I did notice the slats {leading edge of the wings} were not set to full for TO, and the flaps {the aft end of the wings} were set to 0 or no flaps. Normally you would need to have some flaps when you take off. Just a opinion on this very cool video.
It is perfectly acceptable to do a slats-only takeoff in Falcon aircraft.

How long did it take him to stop after aborting takeoff?

@3k9sv048 Hi, on F900 you can't extend the slats with no flaps.
The reversers are on number 2 engine only, & I also did not see it out.
The speed brakes are manually actuated also.

@3k9sv048 thats because this is not a RTO. who the hell films an RTO and doesnt hold camera on subject untill it stops? a troll, that's who.

@haitiano1982 You "fergot" how to spell forgot! Fail!
This plane is flown by really experienced pilots. They were following aborted takeoff procedures.

Only the center engine has reverse buckets on the Falcon tiples.

I once saw a British Airways Boeing 747-436 reject its takeoff at LHR. That was a very windy day too: I saw 3 go arounds that same day.

Not often you catch an abort. Wonder what the reason was?

@BeechSundowner I didn't see any degree of flaps. Probably pilot error.
