About the Embraer Phenom 300
The Embraer Phenom 300 is the world’s most delivered light jet for over a decade, and for good reason. It successfully bridged the gap between ‘Very Light Jets’ and midsize jets by offering a clean-sheet design that prioritizes both pilot efficiency and passenger luxury. With its distinctive ‘Oval Lite’ cabin cross-section, it offers more head and shoulder room than almost any other aircraft in its category, making it a favorite for both corporate flight departments and high-end owner-operators.
Key Features for GA Buyers
- Top-Tier Performance: The Phenom 300E (Enhanced) is the fastest and longest-range single-pilot jet in production, reaching speeds of Mach 0.80 and connecting cities like New York and Miami with ease.
- Single-Pilot Prodigy: The ‘Prodigy Touch’ flight deck (Garmin G3000) is arguably the most intuitive avionics suite in the sky, featuring synoptic views of all systems and advanced safety tools like the Runway Overrun Awareness and Alerting System (ROAAS).
- Generous Baggage Space: Boasts a class-leading 84 cubic feet of total baggage capacity, with a large aft compartment that can easily accommodate skis or golf clubs.
- Low Cabin Altitude: A maximum differential of 9.4 psi ensures a cabin altitude of just 6,600 ft at FL450, significantly reducing passenger fatigue on longer missions.
Trade-offs
- Acquisition Cost: Excellence commands a premium; a new 300E can exceed $12M, and the used market remains incredibly tight with high resale values.
- No APU: Like most light jets, it lacks a dedicated Auxiliary Power Unit; however, it utilizes a ground power mode and efficient cooling systems to manage cabin temperature during boarding.
- Payload/Range Balance: While it can seat up to 10–11 in a pinch, a full passenger load will require a reduction in fuel, limiting the jet to approximately 1,100–1,200 nm missions.
