Embraer has signed a contract with GrandView Aviation for a Phenom 300MED STC conversion. The aircraft will be converted at Embraer’s Service Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and operated by on-demand charter operator GrandView Aviation.

This contract is an example of Embraer’s ability to add value in our industry-leading product portfolio.”
