EASA Certified: Embraer Phenom 300

Met All Original Specification Targets And Surpassed Many Performance Goals

In a ceremony held Thursday at EBACE 2010 in Geneva, Switzerland, Embraer received the type certificate for the Phenom 300 from the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), which was granted on April 29. This approval came in on schedule.

"Following certification by Brazil's ANAC and the U.S.'s FAA, last December, EASA has also certified the Phenom 300, with no restrictions," said Luis Carlos Affonso, Embraer Executive Vice President, Executive Jets. "The light jet's singular and innovative features make this aircraft uniquely competitive in the business aviation market."

The overall certification campaign involved five aircraft that performed more than 1,200 flight test hours, certifying the aircraft for RVSM (Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum), day and night IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) operations, and flying into known and forecasted icing conditions. In addition, there were full-scale static and fatigue tests, and rigs were used for environmental, avionics, and electrical systems.

The Phenom 300 can reach 521 mph (453 knots TAS), and it can fly at an altitude of up to 45,000 feet. Its range of 1,971 nautical miles including NBAA IFR fuel reserves, means the aircraft is capable of flying nonstop from New York to Dallas (U.S.); London to Athens (Europe); or Delhi (India) to Dubai (United Arab Emirates).
