Embraer performed the maiden flight of its second Phenom 100 jet, registration PP-XOM, Wednesday. Captain Marcio Brisolla Jordão, Captain Antonio Bragança Silva, and flight engineer Carlos Roberto Silveira Filho.

“The flight test campaign is steadily progressing, confirming the quality and trueness of the project design of these jets,” said Henrique Langenegger, Embraer Vice President, Programs – Executive Jets. “Flight tests are producing the first results, and the assembly of the third plane moves efficiently ahead.”

The tests to be performed by this aircraft deal with systems functioning, In-Flight Thrust Determination (IFTD), and flutter.

The full test campaign of the Phenom 100 will be carried out by four aircraft. With this flight, there are now two jets in the test phase to confirm design features, as well as to provide data for certification.

The first and second Phenom 100 jets are fully instrumented, while the third and fourth aircraft will be outfitted with the interior designed by BMW Group DesignworksUSA.
