Spotlight on the Praetor 600

The direct successor of Embraer’s Legacy aircraft family, the Praetor 500 and 600 were first unveiled towards the end of 2018. Ever since the first delivery in June 2019, the Praetor 600, though a super-midsize aircraft, continues to be a heavy-hitter in the business jet market. With an intercontinental eight-hour range, and thus capable of flying direct from London to New York or the UAE, it is easy to see why the Praetor 600 has become the jet of choice for business people and families the world over.

A model of many firsts, the Praetor is the first in class to feature full fly-by-wire technology, not only boosting its safety credentials, but incorporating Embraer’s leading Active Turbulence Reduction technology, sensing, and damping, the effects of turbulence, ensuring a smooth and fuel-efficient flight. Class-leading agility makes for more flexibility for its passengers – the design of the wings and advancements in the cockpit mean that the Praetor 600 has exceptional short-field performance – the aircraft is able to land places most other super-midsize aircraft can’t – from airports like London City to La Môle in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, dropping passengers closer to their final destination, and vastly reducing transit times.

Capable of carrying nine passengers, but luxuriously configured to transport up to six in the highest of comfort, whether travelling for business or pleasure, a trip on a Praetor 600 is an unforgettable one. The Praetor’s class-defining cabin is exceptionally technologically-capable for its class – from the super-midsize exclusive Ka-band Wi-Fi keeping passengers connected to the world below them, to the best-in-class altitude where 45,000ft outside measures 5000ft inside. This cabin pressure technology, combined with HEPA filters capturing over 99% of microscopic particles from the air in the cabin, you can be sure you are breathing fresh air, helping you not feel jetlagged when you arrive at your destination.

A perfect charter aircraft for sports, and film and entertainment, the generous hold ensures that there is more than enough space for everyone’s kit – with a large suitcase each and space for soft shell bags for golf clubs and skis, the Praetor 600 takes the biscuit for the most versatile business jet of its type. Boasting the impressive ability to transform existing seats into four 7ft lie flat berths inclusive of one double (so sleeping five), and a crewed cabin inclusive of a dedicated and highly-trained flight attendant, being served at 45,000ft in class-leading comfort is a certainty in the Praetor 600.
