Embraer Bizjet Shipments Down in ’17, but Meet Target

As of December 31, Embraer’s backlog for both executive and commercial aircraft stood at $18.3 billion, down from $19.6 billion a year earlier.

Embraer shipped 109 business jets in 2017, eight fewer than in 2016. Last year's tally includes 54 Phenom 300s, down from 63 in 2016 when it was crowned as the best-selling business jet for the fourth year in a row. It's yet unknown if that title will extend to a fifth year. (Photo: Embraer Executive Jets)

While deliveries of Embraer business jets were within its “outlook ranges,” the 109 units the company shipped last year amounted to eight aircraft fewer than in 2016, according to data released today by the Brazilian aircraft manufacturer. Last year’s total includes 72 light jets (18 Phenom 100s, 54 Phenom 300s) and 37 large jets (14 Legacy 450s, 15 Legacy 500s, seven Legacy 650s, one Lineage 1000) versus 2016's 73 Phenoms (ten 100s, sixty-three 300s) and 44 Legacy/Lineages (twelve 450s, twenty-one 500s, nine 650s, two 1000s). According to Embraer, these numbers are aligned with its business jet shipment estimates reported early last year: 70 to 80 light jets and 35 to 45 large jets.
