Attention to detail and superior craftsmanship are evident throughout the
elegantly appointed 6-foot-tall flat-floor cabin, from the furniture-like design
of the fully reclining seats to the optimal placement of the seats next to
large windows. Whether working or dining, the cabin’s stowable tables
offer plenty of space, opening flush with the side ledge. And with the most

Technology is not just about the latest trends, but also about seamless
integration. Its purpose is to serve the user. And an innovative new
cabin management feature – the upper tech panel – does just that.
Unique to Embraer, the touchscreen overhead panel brings flight
status information, ambient lighting and access to cabin controls
directly to passengers’ fingertips.aa
A PERFECT UNION OF
TECHNOLOGY AND ERGONOMICS.
The Legacy 500 promises its pilots the most sophisticated marriage of technology and ergonomics
in any size business jet. The dark and quiet cockpit is designed to anticipate every need, reduce
pilot fatigue and minimize workload. The Legacy 500 has a Synthetic Vision System to see what the
eyes can’t. Enhanced Vision and Head-Up Display (HUD) offer even more situational awareness.
The orchestration of Embraer´s digital controls, based on fly-by-wire technology, and Rockwell
Collins Pro Line Fusion avionics provide an instinctive interface between pilot and aircraft.
