Embraer introduced the new Phenom 300E, an updated version of the Phenom 300, the best-selling business jet for the past four years. “People ask, ‘Why do anything to the best-selling business jet,’” said Embraer Executive Jets president and CEO Michael Amalfitano, in introducing the aircraft on Monday at NBAA 2017. “Because we can—we have the opportunity to enhance” the platform. Indeed, the “E” stands for “enhanced,” according to Embraer (Booth N2632; SD15), and refers to the jet’s redesigned cabin and the addition of Lufthansa Technik’s nice HD CMS/IFE (High Definition Cabin Management System/In-flight Entertainment) system.
