It would appear these airplanes,like the Falcon 7X before them,will have no external serials.

Is it legal to have aircraft flying operating without visible serial? Maybe a stupid comparison, but if I don't carry a license plate on my car, I will be fined. Seems logical to me that it also counts for aircraft to be identified by there serial? Or is there an exception for military/government planes?

The French Aviation Inspection (DGAC) have approved special regulations for VIP-airplanes regarding external ID-wearing.

I thought there were international laws governing external aircraft serial numbers?.

Then again one thinks of US P-3 and E-6 airplanes in the 80s and 90s.
