Aircraft To Join Embraer's Legacy 600 In Static Display At ORL

For the first time in the United States, Embraer will display its upcoming Phenom 100 VLJ and Phenom 300 light jet at NBAA 2008. The two new aircraft will join Embraer's Legacy 600 on the ramp at the Orlando Executive Airport (ORL.)

In addition, Embraer will exhibit full-scale mock-ups of the Phenom 300 and Legacy 500, and a cabin cross-section of the Lineage 1000 at its booth, number 5073.

"It is an honor to present both Phenom jets in the US, for the first time," said Luís Carlos Affonso, Embraer Executive Vice President, Executive Jets. "Three years ago, we brought their mock-ups to NBAA, which makes this occasion even more significant to us. This is a privilege to showcase these revolutionary new jets to our customers."

Embraer's expanded portfolio is now comprised of the entry level Phenom 100, the light Phenom 300, the newly launched midlight Legacy 450 and midsize Legacy 500, the super midsize Legacy 600 and the ultra-large Lineage 1000. All of the jets are positioned at the top of their categories, offering premium comfort, excellent performance and low operating costs.

NBAA 2008 kicks off Monday, October 6, at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, FL.
