An undisclosed Middle East customer has ordered a new Legacy 650 large jet.
The aircraft is scheduled to be received at the end of 2015 and will be managed by Titan Aviation Group, a global aviation specialty service provider headquartered in the United Arab Emirates.
“The Legacy 650 has impressed customers because of its range, reliability and ample cabin and baggage space offering – the largest in this category.”
Marco Tulio Pellegrini, president and CEO, Embraer Executive Jets said: “The Legacy 650 has impressed customers because of its range, reliability and ample cabin and baggage space offering – the largest in this category. This aircraft can fly non-stop from the main cities in the Middle East to London. We have about 45 business jets in the Middle East and about 60% of this fleet are Legacy 650s or Legacy 600s, which is a testament to the aircraft’s popularity.”
“This is the customer’s second purchase from Embraer. We are grateful for the confidence placed in us and thank Titan Aviation for their steadfast support.”
