Embraer announced that the Phenom 300EV has received triple certification from Brazil’s Civil Aviation Authority (ANAC — Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), making it the first light jet certified with Garmin Emergency Autoland.

Introduced in July, the world’s fastest and furthest-flying light jet incorporates intuitive safety technology and a series of performance and interior enhancements designed to amplify its renowned capabilities and further enhance the customer experience. With certification now complete, the Phenom 300EV is approved for operation in key global markets.

“The Phenom 300EV builds on the legendary capabilities of the world's bestselling light jet, now enhanced through purposeful innovations that further elevate safety technology, best-in-class performance characteristics, and the customer experience,” said Michael Amalfitano, President & CEO of Embraer Executive Jets. “Achieving triple certification is a testament to the dedication of our teams and Embraer's disciplined approach to engineering excellence and execution. With this important milestone achieved, we look forward to bringing the Phenom 300EV to customers worldwide and extending the remarkable reputation of the Phenom 300 series.”

As the largest business jet equipped with Garmin Emergency Autoland, the Phenom 300EV can execute a fully automated landing in the unlikely event of pilot incapacitation. Enabling these electronically controlled functions, including autobrake and rudder-by-wire, Embraer designed and developed the Multi-Purpose Electronic Controller (MEC), contributing to enhanced handling, reduced workload and simplified maintenance.

With a best-in-class range, increased to 2,055 nautical miles (3,806 km), carrying four passengers with NBAA IFR reserves, the Phenom 300EV enables nonstop regional flights, including routes such as Aspen to New York, Dubai to the Maldives, and São Paulo to Manaus. Complementing this performance capability, the aircraft has an increased payload capability and features cabin refinements including a state-of-the-art line-fit connectivity solution powered by Gogo Galileo’s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network, delivering high-speed global connection. Starlink connectivity will also be available as an aftermarket solution via a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC).

Deliveries of the new model are expected to begin in 2028. For more information, please visit: https://www.embraer.com/executive-jets-our-aircraft/phenom-300ev/en/.
