Insider Note
Buyers evaluating light jets should compare mission profiles rather than specs alone. The Embraer Phenom 300's 2,010 NM range and 10-seat cabin suit a specific use case. If the typical mission exceeds 2,010 NM or regularly carries more than 10 passengers, a midsize jet may be the better fit.
