Embraer Executive Jets handed over the 300th Phenom 300 last Thursday to an undisclosed U.S. customer, just one year after achieving the same milestone for the smaller Phenom 100/100E. The commemorative Phenom 300 was assembled at and delivered from Embraer’s facility in Melbourne, Fla. Over the past two years, the Phenom 300 has been the most delivered business jet in the world and is on pace to do so again this year, according to Embraer.

“The 300th delivery confirms the outstanding worldwide reception the Phenom 300 has received and is an eloquent testament to the aircraft, which has redefined the light jet segment,” Embraer said. “Embraer’s drive for customer satisfaction and the cutting-edge design and performance of its products continues to draw new operators and enhance customer loyalty.” 

The Phenom 300 is in operation in 28 countries and the fleet has accumulated more than 250,000 flight hours. In six years of operation, the Phenom 300 fleet has earned a57-percent market share in the light jet category. In June last year, Embraer delivered the 500th Phenom—also a Model 300—and plans to hand over the 150th U.S.-assembled Phenom soon .
