Key Points: Why Charter the Embraer Legacy 600?

• Fly up to 3,400 nautical miles nonstop, offering intercontinental range.

• Large-cabin performance with super-midsize operating costs. 

• Derived from the Embraer 135 regional jet for strength and dependability.

Embraer Legacy 600 Development & Background

Introduced in 2000, the Legacy 600 was Embraer’s first major entry into the business aviation market, leveraging the proven ERJ-135 regional jet structure and systems.

By the late 1990s, Embraer sought to diversify beyond regional jets. Their engineers recognized that the ERJ-135’s robust airframe, pressurization system, and proven avionics provided an ideal foundation for a long-range corporate aircraft.

The result was the Legacy 600, unveiled at the 2000 Farnborough Air Show, and entered service in 2003. While the jet retained the same fuselage cross-section as the ERJ-135, over 90% of the systems were re-engineered for private aviation. Embraer added extra fuel tanks, refined the wing aerodynamics, and strengthened the landing gear for higher weights and longer missions.

With over 270- delivered, the Legacy 600 laid the foundation for a new generation of Embraer business jets, leading directly to the Legacy 650, 650E, and Praetor 600, which expanded range and performance even further.
