Embraer’s Legacy 500 Executive Jet Mock-up Debuts in India

Embraer’s Legacy 500 executive jet mock-up has reached Mumbai, India. The full-size model will be on display at the Grand Hyatt Mumbai Hotel, March 15-18. This stop is part of the world tour to promote the Company’s midsize jet, and follows its exhibition at the Singapore Airshow, last month.
“The Legacy 450 and Legacy 500 aircraft are bringing new standards to the midlight and midsize executive jet categories,” said José Eduardo Costas, Embraer Vice President, Marketing and Sales, Asia Pacific – Executive Jets. “With an exclusive flat-floor stand-up cabin, comfortable interior designed in partnership with BMW DesignworksUSA, and state-of-the-art technology, including a full fly-by-wire flight control system, these jets are designed to be a reliable and convenient business tool for customers.”
The Company continues working in the Indian market, not only promoting its products, in general, but especially focusing on putting a comprehensive support network in place to guarantee the high reliability of its aircraft throughout the region.
After having its Legacy 600 certified and operating in the skies of India for the last five years, the Phenom 100 gained approval, in December 2009, from India’s Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). Embraer has 14 jets operating in India in the commercial, executive and defense aviation segments.
