Embraer Delivers 52 Business Jets in Last Quarter 2014 Brazilian aircraft manufacturer Embraer announced that it delivered 52 business jets in the last quarter of the year 2014. It sounds impressive enough and again the light jet sector of their business was driving the business. The airframer said that it delivered 38 aircraft from its Phenom light jet line. 9* of those delivered were for the smaller Phenom 100 and 29 deliveries comprised the slightly larger Phenom 300 model. There were deliveries from other models in the establishment's portfolio. The Legacy line recorded successful deliveries with the top-of-the-line Legacy 650 chalking-up for a total of 10 while 3 deliveries for the new Legacy 500 jet were recorded. The other model delivered to market/customer was a single Lineage 1000 business jet. The quarter was highlighted by the first deliveries of the Legacy 500 and the additional request from NetJets, which converted 10 Phenom 300 options into firm orders. Compare Q3 to Q4 and it is stark in contrast with only 15 jets, most of them Phenoms were delivered stacked up against the 52 in Q4. For more information: Embraer Brasileira de Aeronautica S.A.
