Why Embraer Stopped Making The Legacy 500 Private Jet

Embraer developed the Legacy 450 and Legacy 500 business jets to fit into the mid-size and super mid-size business jet market. The Legacy 500 was one of the first aircraft in the mid-size business jet category to feature a flat-floor cabin that allowed many of its passengers to stand up. It also featured fly-by-wire flight controls, making it the first mid-size business jet to offer this feature.
