A decade on from the very light jet (VLJ) revolution that was stopped in its tracks by the financial crisis of 2008, Austria-based Globe Air is keeping its 15-strong fleet of Cessna Citation Mustangs busy as it contemplates a possible replacement for a model that it believes might go out of production this year. Embraer’s Phenom 100EV appears to be the likely choice, according to Globe Air CEO Bernhard Fragner.
