São José dos Campos, Brazil – The Embraer Phenom 100 EV is making its global debut at the NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (NBAA-BACE), Nov. 1-3 in Orlando, Florida. With a special livery, representing technological advancements, the aircraft will be on static display at Orlando Executive Airport, along with Embraer’s full portfolio of executive jets.
The Phenom 100 EV, which has already logged more than 100 hours in its flight test campaign, is an evolution of the entry-level Phenom 100 business jet, featuring a new avionics suite with the Prodigy Touch flight deck, based on the Garmin G3000, and modified Pratt & Whitney Canada PW617F1-E engines. The new version offers more speed with better hot-and-high performance. With even greater performance and operational capabilities, this aircraft preserves its recognition for low operating and maintenance costs. The Phenom 100 EV is scheduled to enter service in the first half of 2017.
Launched in July at the EAA AirVenture Fly-In and Convention, in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, the Phenom 100EV will enjoy dual launch customers, each with unique operating requirements. Mexico’s Across, a premium business aviation services provider, will benefit from the aircraft’s hot-and-high performance out of its base at Toluca International Airport (TLC). Emirates Flight Training Academy, with its new world class training facility due to open later this year, addresses the industry’s growing demand for pilots. Emirates recently upgraded its earlier order for five Phenom 100s to Phenom 100EVs, becoming the first flight training organization in the world to train cadet pilots using this platform.
The Phenom 100 EV evolution also brings interior enhancements, such as a new floor sill, featuring a straight-line design to increase the aisle area, and relocated power outlets with USB chargers. The aircraft features eleven interior designs, abundant natural light from large windows, private rear lavatory, refreshment center, integrated air stair, and large baggage compartment.
The first Phenom 100 entry-level jet was delivered in December 2008. Today, close to 350 Phenom 100 jets are operating in 37 countries.
