“The certification of the Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 jets
in Indonesia extends the enduring relationship we have with the
country, where five Embraer Legacy 600s are in operation,”
said José Eduardo Costas, Embraer Vice President, Marketing
and Sales, Asia Pacific – Executive Jets. “The
certification reflects our commitment to offer best-in-class
products to the Asian market. We are confident that the light
jet’s innovative features and track record will make it a
compelling proposition for prospects in this region.”
The Phenom jets were launched by Embraer in 2005. The entry

deliveries. European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) certification
came in 2009. Today, the aircraft is flying in 29 countries. In
2010, 100 Phenom 100s were produced and delivered to customers,
making it the most delivered executive jet in the industry.
