The world fleet has logged more than five million flight hours and carried more than 60 million passengers. The Brasilia is flown by 29 companies in 14 countries. The first EMB-120 Brasilia was the fastest (300 kt of cruise speed), the lightest (25,353 lbs of maximum take-off weight) and the most economical aircraft of the 30-40 seat range. For the first time in aviation history, small communities and the regional airlines connecting them had an aircraft specifically designed to meet their needs. When the EMB-120 Brasilia was introduced in May 1985 with its launch customer, the U.S.-based Atlantic Southeast Airlines, it changed regional air travel. The Embraer EMB 120 Brasilia is a 30 seat airliner, produced by Embraer of Brazil.
