The Embraer Praetor series of aircraft represent the apogee of mid-sized private jet development. Here, we'll look at five notable features of the aircraft line. The Embraer Praetor 500 and 600 represent the latest advancements in midsize and super-midsize business jets.
Here are five standout features that set these aircraft apart: 1 Exceptional range The Embraer Praetor jets boast long range in the midsize and super-midsize class. The Praetor 600 boasts an impressive range of 4,018 nautical miles , making it the farthest-flying super-midsize business jet in its class[1]. This allows for nonstop flights between major city pairs like London and New York, pushing the boundaries of what's possible for a jet of this size.
The Praetor 500 is no slouch either, with a range of 3,340 nautical miles. 2 Advanced fly-by-wire technology Fly-by-wire enhances safety and efficiency. Both Praetor 500 and 600 feature a state-of-the-art fly-by-wire system that enhances safety and efficiency.
This flight control system is flight-path oriented, eliminating the need for manual trim adjustments. It offers two modes—normal and direct—providing pilots with optimal control and protection in various flight conditions. Embraer made big news in 2008 with the Phenom series and again in 2018 with the Praetor family of jets.
Many believe that the Praetor evolved from the smaller Phenom jets. However, the Praetor 500 and 600 evolved from the Legacy 450 and 500, respectively. 3 Collins Aerospace Pro Lin.
