According to the General Aviation Manufacturers
Association (GAMA), Embraer’s Phenom
300 series has become the world’s best-selling light jet, for the
11th consecutive year.
Embraer delivered 59 Phenom 300 series light jets in 2022, and to date, the series has accrued
more than 700 deliveries.
The Phenom 300
series is in operation in 36 countries and has accumulated nearly
one million, eight hundred thousand flight hours.
“It’s no coincidence that the Phenom 300 is once again the
best-selling light jet in the industry,” said Michael Amalfitano,
President & CEO of Embraer Executive Jets. “For 11 consecutive
years, it has continued its strong momentum in the market and
outperformed for our loyal customers—whether through best-in-class
range and speed, or by offering the highest residual value of any
aircraft in the market. This distinction is a true testament to
Embraer’s ability to deliver the ultimate experience to its
customers through truly innovative aircraft.”
In terms of performance, the new
Phenom 300E is capable of reaching Mach 0.80,
making it the fastest single-pilot jet in production. It has a high-speed cruise of 464 knots and a five-occupant range
of 2,010 nautical miles (3,724 km) with NBAA IFR reserves.
Additional technology enhancements include an
featuring a runway overrun awareness and alerting
system (ROAAS) ― the first technology of its kind to be developed
and certified in business aviation ― as well as predictive windshear, Emergency Descent Mode, PERF, TOLD, and FAA Datacom,
among others.
