About the Embraer EMB110 Bandeirante

The Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante is a rugged, twin-turboprop light transport that served as the foundation for Embraer’s global success. Known for its ‘built-like-a-tank’ reliability, it is a staple in regional cargo and commuter operations where short-field performance is paramount.

Key Features for GA Buyers

STOL Capability: Exceptional short takeoff and landing performance allows operation from unpaved and short rural strips (sub-3,000 ft).
Versatility: The ‘Quick Change’ (P1) variants feature a large rear cargo door, allowing for rapid conversion between passenger and freight configurations.
Proven Powerplants: Equipped with the ubiquitous Pratt & Whitney PT6A-34 engines, ensuring global parts availability and reliable service.

Trade-offs

Unpressurized: The cabin is not pressurized, limiting efficient cruise altitudes to below 10,000–12,000 ft for passenger comfort.
Speed: With a max cruise around 222-248 knots, it is slower than many modern competitors like the Beechcraft 1900 or the EMB-120 Brasilia.
Operating Cost: As a multi-engine turboprop, maintenance and fuel burn are significantly higher than smaller GA twins, requiring high utilization to be economically viable.
