WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., Jan. 23 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Embraer(NYSE: ERJ) is exhibiting a full-scale interior mock-up display of its recently launched Phenom 100 jet during the 2006 Winter Equestrian Festival.
Beginning January 25, at the Palm Beach Polo Equestrian Club in Wellington, Fla., visitors will experience the premium comfort and luxury of Embraer's new jet. Visitors are also invited to watch the world champion equestrian jumper Rodrigo Pessoa, who is competing in this festival.
Inspired by input from pilots, owners, operators and business executives, Embraer commissioned BMW Group DesignworksUSA to deliver an interior design that melds comfort, function and style. The result is an operation-friendly flight deck seamlessly integrated with the cabin to create an atmosphere of elegant simplicity. Onboard amenities include a private lavatory and refreshment center, executive table, entertainment and communications at the passenger's fingertips. Embraer's exclusive Oval Lite(tm) design provides more legroom and personal space, rounding out a premium experience that will define the future of light jet travel.
Other distinct advantages of the Phenom 100 --including single-pilot operation, next-generation engines, low-cost operation and high-utilization design -- combine to make this jet the choice for personal use, business travel and air taxi operation.
The Phenom 100 is part of Embraer's offering to the executive aviation market, which also includes the Phenom 300 and the Legacy 600 jets in its portfolio. The Phenom 100 will comfortably accommodate up to eight people and be powered by Pratt & Whitney Canada's PW617F engine, with 1,615 pounds of thrust. Its range will be 1,160 nautical miles (NBAA IFR reserves with 100 nm alternate) or 1,320nm (VFR range with 45 min. reserve) with four people onboard, and it will have a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.7. The airplane is designed for short field takeoff performance and is capable of flying at 41,000 feet. The Phenom 100, priced at $2.75 million in 2005 economic conditions, is expected to enter service in mid-2008.
