LOOP News 8 AUG 07: TRULY PHENOM-ENAL!BRAZILIAN aircraft maker Embraer had the maiden flight of its new Phenom 100 Very Light Jet on 26 July. The Phenom is eagerly awaited among business jet operators as the company has been very successfully in building bigger regional jets. "This is a key milestone for Embraer and a very special and rewarding moment for the entire Embraer team. To see our new baby bird taking off is highly satisfying and I congratulate every Embraer employee for making this possible." remarked Frederico Fleury Curado, Embraer President and CEO. "When we unveiled the Phenom jets a little more than two years ago, we asserted to the business aviation community our commitment to be a long term player in the executive aviation market. The first flight of the Phenom 100 confirms this commitment and constitutes another step in Embraer´s strategy to serve our customers with a product line that spans the market." Test pilots Capt. Antonio Bragança Silva and Capt. Eduardo Alves Menini, and flight test engineer Marcelo Toledo Basile, were satisfied with the maiden flight. "We had a successful first flight. All manoeuvres and tests were performed as planned", said Capt. Bragança. "We were very impressed with the Phenom 100 performance and flying characteristics, as well as the exceptional comfort and ergonomics of its cockpit design".
