Embraer Unveils Latest Addition To Its Lineage At EBACE2006

New Lineage 1000 Bizjet Based On Embraer 190

There was big news from Embraer Tuesday at the European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE2006), as the company introduced the Lineage 1000, an ultra-large business jet based on the Embraer 190 commercial jet platform. The aircraft is the fourth in Embraer’s growing business jet portfolio, joining the upcoming Phenom 100 VLJ, Phenom 300 light jet and current Legacy 600 bizjet.

"When we unveiled the Phenom jets only 12 months ago, we asserted to the business aviation community our firm commitment to stay in this industry and grow our presence," said Maurício Botelho, Embraer President and CEO. "We are now taking advantage of the Embraer 190 platform to launch the Lineage 1000, a premium product with superior comfort and performance characteristics."

"This is yet another demonstration of Embraer´s long term vision and will to serve our customers with a product line that spans the market," Botelho added

Embraer is presenting the Lineage 1000 as an 'ultra-large' business jet, featuring an oversized cabin space with a luxurious interior in five distinct areas, where up to 19 passengers will enjoy a variety of ambiences for lounging, dining, conferencing or relaxing.

With total cabin volume of 4,085 cubic feet, the Lineage 1000 will offer flexibility of interior customizations -- including the possibility of up to three lavatories and even a standup shower. A set of pre-defined cabin configurations are meant to fit all travelers' needs, offering plentiful room for work, rest and meetings.

Optional amenities on the Lineage 1000 will include Wi-Fi technology and Internet access, Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) and other features. The aircraft also features fly-by-wire technology, with a highly-integrated Primus Epic avionics suite from Honeywell featuring five LCD multifunction control displays, cursor control device (CCD), auto-throttle, weather radar with turbulence detection, fly-by-wire, and other cutting-edge technologies.

The airplane's generous baggage compartment is also complemented by a walk-in luggage area conveniently accessible in flight, for total capacity of 615 cubic feet.

The Lineage 1000 is powered by two GE CF34-10E7 engines, with 18,500 pounds of thrust each. Its range with eight passengers onboard will be 4,200 nautical miles (7,778 km or 4,833 miles) with NBAA IFR reserves and 200 nm alternate. The airplane will offer a maximum operating speed of Mach 0.82, and is capable of flying at 41,000 feet (12,497 m).

These characteristics will allow customers to fly nonstop from London to New York or anywhere in Europe and Middle East; from Moscow to Tokyo, Quebec or anywhere in the Middle East; from New York to Paris, Brasília or anywhere in North America; from Jeddah to Beijing, Bangkok or anywhere in Europe, Africa and Middle East; from Dubai to Tokyo, Johannesburg, Rabat or anywhere in Europe and Middle East, at a lower operational cost and ultimate comfort.

Born of the severe demands of commercial aviation, the Lineage 1000 platform is designed for quick turnaround, top performance, high utilization and low maintenance. Its reliability is proven by hundreds of thousands of flight hours, and refined by the latest engineering.

"The Lineage 1000 is in a class of its own," said Luís Carlos Affonso, Embraer Senior Vice-President, Executive Jets. "Abounding with space, premium comfort, refined appointments and convenient amenities, the Lineage 1000 will deliver the ultimate in travel comfort, performance and operational economics."

Born of the severe demands of commercial aviation, Embraer says the Lineage 1000 will inherit the high performance, high utilization design from the Embraer 190 it's based upon, and will offer similar low operating costs. The Lineage 1000 is expected to enter service in mid-2008.
