450's first flight fulfils Embraer's Florida Legacy

摘要

Brazil's Embraer has now flown the third business jet type to be assembled in its five-year-old factory in Melbourne, Florida. The flight of the Legacy 450 follows two other types - the Phenom 100 and 300 - built in the recently-expanded factory. Embraer plans to deliver the Legacy 450 to a customer in December, says Marco Tulio Pellegrini, president and chief executive of the airframer's executive jets division.
