Phenom 300 - The most one pilot can do

What does it actually cost to buy and own a Phenom 300? In this short video we break down the Phenom 300 Cost of Ownership and let you know exactly what your get for your money. And how much of your money it will take.

In addition to annual costs, we cover the cost per hour and cost per mile to operate. We also cover key performance stats so you know what you're paying for.

Costs of airplane ownership vary widely from owner to owner. This video takes an average of the various expenses from existing owners and boils them down to simple to digest numbers. Your ownership experiences will be unique.

Amazing video! I fly and manage a Phenom 300, and you are very very close on your numbers! The Phenom outperforms the PC-24 in almost every category (except cargo door size and number of main landing gear tires). It is the highest performing civilian single pilot aircraft in production today, but I must correct you, it HAS been beaten. The SyberJet SJ30 (5 made, and going back into production) was single pilot, flew at FL470, Mach .83, and had a range of 2500 miles. It was much smaller though.

There was a billionaire at an airport I used to fly out of who bought one of these specifically because it was the largest jet he could fly single pilot. He’d take it up on the weekends and bum around the Rockies vfr like it was a piper cub.

Finally something closer to my price range (I can barely afford a 1/5th share of a 172)

One thing to note is out of all the jets in its class Phenoms are by far the easiest to work on. in my repair facility their maintenance turn around are lightning fast compared to others. Their manuals are incredibly user friendly and their able to troubleshoot themselves. Embraer really knocked it out of the park with these

I am a Phenom pilot for a 135, it's a great jet, only two things about it I can't stand. 1: it has no tiller. It's a pain in the ass to taxi in tight spots. 2: the computer controlled brakes aren't very good, they grab and can ruin a great landing.

Other than those two gripes, I love the thing.

... and that's your entire audience, as well. :D

[Fynnley]

one of my favorite bizjets to work around, very easy to service but the engines are very loud even for a jet engine, 300 is definitely the better model tho (it has singlepoint fueling so that gives it a ton of extra points over the 100)

I have only flown 172 and other small planes but seeing 4500ft of climb, is crazy. That must feel like you are riding a rocket ship.

It's a nice airplane. Netjets uses them in their fractional ownership plan, and I had the privilege to fly in it a couple of times because a relative had a Netjets account. There were always two pilots when I flew via Netjets.

You should make a Google sheet available to viewers where we could filter and sort by speed, price, cost per mile, etc.

Regularly get 6, 000FPM climbouts all the way to about FL200, then 3, 000FPM to FL350, 2, 000 to FL400 and 1, 000FPM to FL450. Super fun to fly

Never stop. You make my day every time there's a new release :)

[figninevideo]

I thought you could not top some of your prior most clever and humorous episodes but this one does. 😂

"This whole channel is just me planning out for when I hit the powerball."
That's exactly what it is for me also. 😂

[Rostol]

my whole viewage (is this a word?) of this channel is for when I win the poweball, and if do I'll take you for a ride. I liked the piaggio evo until your piaggo evo video brought me down to earth, so this is my fallback (LOL).
"- and what do you want to do with all this millions?
- ehh just buy and mantain a jet for a few years"

Your voiceover work has now ascended to Morgan Freeman status with the use of sooper dooper pooper scooper.

Another awesome video! You gotta do the Beech 18. Depending on your perspective and when you consider what it does, it's either one of the most bang for your bucks twins around, or the biggest money pit you can own.

[Vroomerz]

Yes. I agree. Your whole channel is me budgeting out my Powerball win, too.
WWI replica budget - check.
1970's "Twin Town" - check (and pass).
Phenom 300 budget - check. (Will be flying with a 2nd pilot - #safety.)
Hummingbird 300L budget - waiting. (currently planning $320k+, with fast build option, some options, and high end Garmin avionics).

"This entire channel is for when I hit the Powerball"

This is why I come back to see what I should buy when I hit the Powerball too!

[julienperroud]

Really nice overview. I would love to see a PC-24 comparison at some point.
