Firm Orders For Two Phenom 300s, One Legacy 500 And One Legacy
600
Embraer delivered a Legacy 600 executive jet to vibroair
Flugservice GmbH&Co.KG, last week, at Embraer’s
headquarters in São José dos Campos, Brazil. This is
the first aircraft to be delivered to the German customer, based at
Düsseldorf International Airport, and represents the beginning
of what may be a long-term relationship between the companies.
Vibroair has firm orders for two light Phenom 300 executive jets to
be delivered in 2014, as well as a midsize Legacy 500 for the same
year.
“Embraer’s reputation for producing quality
commercial jets weighed heavily in our choice of these business
jets, which I consider to be products of the future.” said
Ulrich Sigmann, vibroair’s Commercial Director. “The
Legacy 600 will be used in one of Europe’s most populated
areas – the Rhine-Ruhr region – and beyond, through our
private charter service.”
