Embraer took the ERJ-135 regional jet, kept the airline bones, and fitted a 13-seat executive cabin with three distinct zones. The result flies like the airliner it is — docile, proven, and cheap to run next to anything its size.
Underneath the paint, the Legacy 600 is an ERJ-135 airliner with winglets, extra fuel tanks and a three-zone cabin.
