Embraer Lineage 1000 Performance

The Lineage 1000 has a very flexible range of 4,200 nautical miles, which as mentioned before, is truly a remarkable figure for a business jet with such an expansive cabin.

Beyond being able to fly further than most other business jets, the aircraft is also quite fast with a maximum cruising speed of 470 knots.

These impressive performance specifications are thanks mainly to the engines behind its power, two General Electric CF34-10E7-B high-bypass jet engines, which each provide an enormous 18,000 pounds of thrust.
