NJA orders 50 Phenom 300s

[jtf]

I would love to see an APU in it, but my guess is less than 50 percent on that one. As far as changing the avionics- I put that at less than 10 percent. Embraer has had enough issues with computer glitches in past models that I would really hope we just let them iron out whatever glitches this one has in the next couple of years before any are delivered with a whole new set of potential glitches.

The P300 is still "just a light jet" - and as such the standard APU is the RH engine.

If Embraer put an APU on NJA aircraft then they'd almost HAVE to offer it on other customers' airframes...

They'd have to buy the 350 then... but it was designed for NetJets.

Platinum baby!!

It should surprise you because it ain't happenin. BTW, it's the Phenom 300. Carry on.

Actually, NetJets has placed an order for the Phenom 350. The 300 wasn't exclusive enough.

That was the word from HQ.

P300 looks better in "traditional" bizjet paint like the NJA scheme than the busy Embraer factory schemes, IMO...

Rumor I heard this week on the road, was... we call it a "Platinum" which changes the name of the airplane so we don't have to use Simuflite for aircraft training. Apparently Embraer and Simuflite have an exclusive training agreement together on the Phenom 300, but you add "Platinum" to the name and you don't have the exclusive rights anymore... allowing Flight Safety to buy sims and train.
(just a rumor)

Facts

It is NOT a P300 but in fact it is a EMB505.

Simuflite does a good job! Why can't we go there? Ohhh.. ethically I guess we have to use FSI the Berkshire company

Am I ethically right on this?

Ethics?
Just about everything you post on this message board is either incorrect or false.

Thanks but I think we're required to reserve AWESOME for the Fischman.

Many try to emulate me. Few succeed.

And I like how you add "the" in front of Fischman. That is indeed AWESOME, and is approved. imp:
