“We never stop listening to our customers’ input. Thanks to their invaluable feedback and our commitment to deliver distinctive business aircraft, both the Legacy 450 and the Legacy 500 will deliver an above premium travel experience to our customers,” Edwards added.
Embraer also announced the selection of Rockwell Collins’ Head-up Guidance System (HGS-3500) and EVS-3000 (Enhanced Vision System), which will become the E2VS (Embraer Enhanced Vision) option on both the Legacy 500 and Legacy 450.
