Includes Two New Concepts
Embraer tells ANN it will showcase its executive jets portfolio
during this year’s National Business Aviation Association
(NBAA) 60th Annual Meeting & Convention, held at the Georgia
World Congress Center, in Atlanta, GA next week.
Embraer will exhibit the new interior of the Legacy 600,
full-scale mock-ups of the Phenom 100 and Phenom 300, and a cabin
section of the Lineage 1000. In addition, Embraer plans to show,
for the first time, its concept for two new executive jets (we
won't even being to speculate on their names -- a still-gunshyEd.)
"We are pleased to display our full line of executive jets at
this year’s NBAA annual convention," said Luís Carlos
Affonso, Embraer’s Executive Vice President, Executive Jets.
"We are certain that visitors will enjoy the experience of the
enhanced Legacy 600, as well as the opportunity to explore new
products and new concepts through full-scale mock-ups."
The first Legacy 600 jet equipped with a series of interior
enhancements will be on display in the static area. These
improvements include redesigned seats, a slimmer valence, and
enhanced cabin soundproofing. New features have also been added to
the galley for further convenience during in-flight service.
A mock-up of the Phenom 100 very light jet (shown above) will
also be displayed. Full-scale mock-ups of the Phenom 300 extended
cabin light jet (to be shown in the US for the first time at NBAA)
and a section of the cabin of the Lineage 1000 ultra-large jet will
be shown at the company’s booth on the exhibition floor.
