Market Position & Acquisition Intelligence
Embraer jets hold residual values well relative to their acquisition cost. The Phenom 300 dominates the light jet resale market with strong demand and limited supply. Praetor models are too new to have established deep secondary market patterns but early indicators show strong retention.
Embraer operates service centers in Melbourne (FL), Mesa (AZ), and São José dos Campos. The Phenom series benefits from one of the lowest maintenance cost ratios in its class. Legacy 600/650 aircraft offer exceptional value for the cabin volume.
