Embraer’s Phenom 300 light business jet has been certified by Brazil’s National Civil Aviation Authority.
“We are very happy to announce that the Phenom 300 has not only met all original specification targets, but has also surpassed many performance goals,” said Luís Carlos Affonso, Embraer Executive Jets executive vice president in a December 3 statement.
US FAA and European EASA cerification is expected “within weeks” says Embraer.
Embraer says the Phenom 300’s stick price will be US$8.14m with effect from next February.
