back to 2013 with our first Legacy 600. With this additional
order, we are eager to grow our Embraer fleet by 30% to meet
market demand for these popular aircraft,” said Simon Ebert, Owner
of Air Hamburg. “The premium comfort of the Legacy 650E’s three
cabin zones and the convenience of all the amenities, the
reliability, performance and generous baggage allowance help drive
the satisfaction of our customers.”

systems and components (OEM and supplier), matching the warranty
period to that of the airframe. The Legacy 650E offers three

customer of the Legacy 650E, Air Hamburg has proven the success of
the aircraft in delivering a superior customer experience,” said
