[HD videos below] In its first public appearance since delivery to
the international movie star, Jackie Chan’s Legacy 650 landed in
Singapore on Sunday for its debut at the 2012 Singapore Airshow,
which takes place from 14 – 19 February 2012.
Identified by its
distinctive paint scheme with two lively dragons painted on the
body and the owner’s initials on the tail of the aircraft, Embraer Executive Jets’ brand
ambassador’s ‘ideal business partner’ is the first Legacy 650
to be displayed at the Singapore Airshow. The aircraft is also
Hong Kong-based Sino Jet’s fifth managed aircraft.
The Legacy 650 has a range of 3900
nautical miles with a maximum flying time of 7 hours. It is not
only equipped with a state-of-the-art cockpit, three distinct
cabin zones, advanced Wi-Fi technology and a fully equipped wet
galley, but is also boasts one of the largest inflight accessible
baggage holds and significantly reduced cabin noise.
Having only
entered into service in 2010, the Legacy 650’s advanced
technology, performance and intelligent luxury, have made it an award winning jet. It was crowned “Best of the Best” in
the large executive jet category by Robb Report in 2011, and in
2012 was named “Best of the Best” by the Hurun report, one of the
most widely recognized indices tracking the rapid growth of
China’s high-net-worth individuals.
Since the entry into service
of the first Legacy in Macau SAR in 2004, 18 Legacy 600/650s have
been delivered and are currently in service in Asia Pacific. Most
recently, 13 Legacy 650s were ordered by China’s Minsheng
Financial Leasing Co. Ltd. one of the country’s leading executive
jet leasing companies.
“The aircraft is not only our fifth managed
aircraft. It is also the first Chinese-owned and China-based
Embraer Legacy 650 in the world. The significance of this and the
fascinating exterior paint scheme of the aircraft make it the most
ideal Legacy 650 to be showcased. Embraer and Sino Jet hope the
display would allow the world to witness this significant moment,”
said Sino Jet Management Limited.
