Overview

Summary

The Phenom 100EX reinforces the idea that an entry jet doesn't have to look too simple. Its 1,178 nm of range puts it in a very practical range for regional travel, while the cabin has been crafted to convey product maturity above what is normally expected in this category. It is an aircraft that works well with business people, families and operators who want an entry-level jet that is elegant, functional and easy to fit into their routine.

Entry-level with premium image

The Phenom 100EX uses design and craftsmanship to appear more mature than many direct competitors.

Well-utilized cabin

Built-in tables, good internal organization and relevant luggage make a difference in the routine of use.

Current cockpit

Prodigy Touch and ROAAS help to put the model on a very convincing technical level for the category.

Cabin

Objective cabin and features

At around 1.55 m high and 1.50 m wide, the Phenom 100EX's cabin does not impress because of its gross size, but rather because of the way it makes good use of every available centimeter. The internal design follows a cleaner line, with tables built into the side, an organization that helps keep the environment functional for quick work, conversation and use of devices. The configuration for up to 7 passengers expands the aircraft's versatility, and the total baggage volume of approximately 1.8 m3 reinforces practicality for missions where more bags come into play.

Performance

Operation numbers and features

With 1,178 nm of range, 406 kt of high speed cruise, 41,000 ft ceiling and 3,190 ft takeoff, the Phenom 100EX covers the range of more direct regional and national missions very well. The Prodigy Touch, based on Garmin G3000, and ROAAS make the cockpit more current and more user-friendly, something important for those who want to enter the segment with technology that is already well resolved.

Analysis for purchase

Reading for the purchasing executive

For purchase, the Phenom 100EX makes more sense when the priority is on a first jet with good presence, a compact but well-thought-out cabin and operation suitable for regional missions. It works very well for businesspeople, families and operators who want to start in the segment without giving up the premium perception.
