Embraer Phenom 300 Cockpit - Flight Deck

The Embraer Phenom 300 cockpit is a fully featured cockpit, allowing the Phenom 300 light jet to be flown by one pilot. Embraer teamed up with Garmin to develop the Phenom 300's avionics. The avionics system in the Embraer Phenom 300 Cockpit is called the Prodigy Flight Deck 300 and is developed exclusively for the Embraer Phenom 300's flight deck. The Prodigy Flight Deck 300 is basically a Garmin G1000 Avionics suite with a maintenance computer and other features. The Embraer Phenom 300 cockpit is similar to the Embraer Phenom 100's cockpit and both aircraft have a very similar layout in the cockpit. In the Embraer Phenom 300 cockpit you will find 3 glass cockpit displays that measure 12.4 inches. The 3 displays in the Phenom 300 flight deck can display interchangeable information. Another key feature of the Embraer Phenom 300 cockpit is that there is no overhead panel and there are only a few switched located at the top of the flight deck.

Update: In May 2013 Embraer got approval from the FAA to change the avionics system on the Embraer Phenom 300 to the Garmin G3000 avionics suite, which has touchscreens. More information will be updated later on this new avionics system that is available for the jet.
