Unique Medevac Solution Designed To Be Quickly And Easily Configured

Embraer has announced the Phenom 300MED, which is also available for retrofit, through a partnership with umlaut and Aerolite. Embraer and umlaut are jointly developing and certifying a new STC utilizing Aerolite equipment.

The Phenom 300MED is now available for customer configuration. Designed as an ideal solution for both civil and government applications, the Medevac solution will be installed exclusively by Embraer's Services & Support organization.
 
Together, Embraer and umlaut are developing a comprehensive set of configuration alternatives for the Phenom 300MED, which will feature either one or two stretchers, as well as the ability to carry an incubator and additional medical equipment. The aircraft will also feature hospital-grade trim and finishing. As a purpose-built Medevac solution, created in collaboration with the leading companies in the industry, the Phenom 300MED is designed to be quickly and easily configured to meet the various needs of both healthcare providers and patients.
 
The Phenom 300MED's cabin altitude of 6,600 feet may allow passengers and crew to enjoy more oxygen in the cabin. This feature equates to a healthier flight experience, which is essential for medical staff and patient care.

"umlaut is known for generating full service, cross-industry, and end-to-end solutions. Now, we are combining Embraer and umlaut's strong competencies in aircraft engineering, refurbishment, and certification know-how to bring an unprecedented solution to the market. Together with Aerolite's state-of-the-art aeromedical equipment, we will deliver a solution that will transcend the current market. Designed from the ground up, this new solution will offer a hospital-grade interior with the flexibility for configuration and reconfiguration that simply isn't available today," said Tobias Geißinger, Managing Director of umlaut.
 
The Phenom 300MED is further distinguished by the integration of Aerolite medical equipment. Aerolite is a leader in the design, engineering, production, and installation of Air Medical interiors. They have delivered over 500 Medevac interiors.
 
More than 550 Phenom 300 series aircraft have been delivered since the aircraft entered the market in December 2009, and it has accumulated more than one million flight hours.
