About the Embraer EMB-500

The Embraer Phenom 100 is a very light jet that redefined entry-level business aviation when it entered service in 2008. Designed and built by Embraer in Brazil, the Phenom 100 was the manufacturer's first foray into the business jet market, leveraging decades of regional airliner expertise to create an aircraft that combined jet performance with operating costs approaching high-end turboprops. Its distinctive design features a single-pilot-certified cockpit with Garmin G1000 Prodigy avionics, stand-up cabin height unusual for its class, and a rear-mounted lavatory that became a signature amenity in the very light jet segment.

The aircraft's Pratt & Whitney Canada PW617F-E engines deliver a maximum cruise speed of 380 knots and a range of approximately 1,178 nautical miles with four passengers, making it ideal for short regional hops and owner-pilot operations. The Phenom 100's low approach speed of around 92 knots and docile handling characteristics made it popular with pilot-owners transitioning from piston twins and turboprops. With a maximum operating altitude of 41,000 feet and a takeoff distance of just 3,199 feet, the type opened up both high-altitude direct routing and access to shorter runways previously off-limits to jets.

Embraer has delivered over 400 Phenom 100 and 100EV variants worldwide, with the improved 100EV introduced in 2017 offering increased range and payload. The type competes directly with the Cessna Citation M2 and HondaJet in the very light jet market, and its success paved the way for Embraer's larger Phenom 300, which became the best-selling light jet globally. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, covering routes.
