Embraer Announces New Autothrottle Feature For Phenom 300 Recently, Embraer announced a slew of improvements both in the cabin and cockpit for the entry-level Phenom 100, which they now call the Phenom 100EX. The bigger Phenom sister, the Phenom 300 is also seeing an addition that the pilots will be benefiting from. The new autothrottle will be an optional feature though and is set to further enhance what is an already good single-pilot platform.
Pilots will be able to enjoy a more automated and intuitive flying experience through the autothrottle’s advanced automation technology, which will assist in throttle control during various phases of flight. For passengers, this translates to even greater comfort in the cabin. The feature will be available as an optional item for new Phenom 300E aircraft, in the third quarter of 2024. Embraer is also committed to supporting in-service aircraft via a service bulletin (SB) available from the fourth quarter of 2024, for aircraft that have received factory-incorporated provisions.
"We are excited to introduce autothrottle to the Phenom 300E's avionics suite. It is another example of Embraer’s mindset of continued improvement, listening to customers feedback and elevating an industry-leading product even further. Innovations like this enhance the experience and deliver even more value to operators. And that is why an aircraft like the Phenom 300E continues to offer the ultimate experience in its category," said Michael Amalfitano, President & CEO of Embraer Executive Jets.
