Embraer Executive Jets is in “harvest season” as it gains momentum from the series of updates to its existing product line, accord to company president and CEO Michael Amalfitano. 

Addressing rumors about what airplane might be next in its lineup, and whether it would be bigger, he said, “We're going to do something bigger when we can disrupt it with something differentiated,” pointing to how Embraer migrated fly-by-wire into the midsize business jet class.
