Phenom 300 (EMB-505)

The Aerobask Embraer Phenom 300 brings one of modern business aviation’s most popular and best-selling light jets to X-Plane 12 with sleek visual fidelity and polished avionics. Powered by twin Pratt & Whitney Canada PW535E turbofans, the Phenom 300 blends high-performance corporate speed—cruising at up to Mach 0.78 and climbing all the way to Flight Level 450—with certified single-pilot convenience. Inside the cockpit, Aerobask captures Embraer’s signature Prodigy Flight Deck 300 (built on Garmin G1000 architecture), featuring crisp synthetic vision (SVS), bespoke system synoptic pages, integrated checklists, and intuitive autopilot and flight director modes tailored for effortless high-altitude routing. In the air, the Phenom 300 is responsive, agile, and aerodynamically slick. It climbs briskly out of short corporate airfields, settling into a smooth, quiet cruise complemented by an authentic FMOD soundscape crafted by Daniela Rodríguez Careri. Because the airframe is exceptionally clean and lacks thrust reversers (matching the real-world aircraft), pilots must exercise disciplined energy management on arrival. Descending from the flight levels requires forward planning with flight spoilers, and short-field landings demand strict adherence to reference speeds ($V_{REF}$) and firm wheel braking to prevent floating down the runway.
