Phenom300

The Phenom 300 is a light business jet manufactured by Embraer, a Brazilian aerospace company. It is a twin‑engine, low‑wing jet designed for short‑ to mid‑range trips, typically configured to carry up to nine passengers in a cabin that emphasizes comfort and stand‑up headroom. The program began in the mid‑2000s, with the aircraft first flying in 2009 and entering service in 2010. It has since become one of the most popular jets in its class and has been updated with modernized variants.

In terms of design and performance, the Phenom 300 is powered by two small turbofan engines and offers a combination of speed, range, and efficiency suitable for corporate use and air charter. Typical performance figures place its maximum cruise speed around Mach 0.80, with a practical range roughly in the 2,000 to 2,300 nautical mile region depending on configuration and payload, and a service ceiling near 45,000 feet. The aircraft features a pressurized cabin, baggage capacity, and a cabin layout that prioritizes versatility for business travelers.

Variants include the original Phenom 300 and the Phenom 300E, an enhanced version introduced later that includes upgraded interiors, avionics, and cabin refinements. The 300E aims to improve comfort, efficiency, and overall passenger experience while maintaining the established performance envelope. The Phenom 300 family is used by corporate fleets, air charter operators, and government customers worldwide, reflecting Embraer’s success in the light jet market.
