Embraer's ultra-large Lineage 1000 executive jet received Type Certificate from the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC), following the certifications from United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), European Aviation Safety Authority (EASA) and Brazil's National Civil Aviation Agency (ANAC). This paves the way to register and operate the Linage 1000 in China, and marks an important step symbolizing Embraer's commitment to the Chinese executive aviation market.
The Lineage 1000 is Embraer's largest executive jet among its full line of seven different models. It provides a balance of performance, intelligent luxury and high reliability. Its range (4,500 nautical miles, or 8,334 kilometers, with four passengers and NBAA IFR fuel reserves) assures the jet's capability to fly nonstop from Beijing (China) to Dubai (United Arab Emirates), from Hong Kong to Sydney (Australia), from London (UK) to Dubai, and from New York (U.S.) to Moscow (Russia). The jet is equipped with the Honeywell Primus Epic avionics suite and the latest electronic fly-by-wire flight control system, which provide pilots with a highly intuitive and professional cockpit to guarantee safe and smooth trips.
