Embraer Legacy 500 Approved for Ops at London City Airport
The Legacy 500 that performed this demonstration is the 1,000th business jet that Embraer has delivered, and joined Flexjet’s fleet last month.


An Embraer Legacy 500 demonstrated the aircraft’s steep approach capability to operate at London City Airport on Friday, following approval in March for the type to fly the required 5.5-degree approach profile into the airfield. The Legacy 500 that performed this demonstration is Embraer’s 1,000th delivered business jet, which was handed over to Flexjet last month. This is the fourth Legacy 500 to join the Flexjet fleet and is part of a firm order from the fractional provider for Legacy 450s and 500s.
