Flight Options Receives Its First Phenom

Cleveland-based fractional aircraft provider Flight Options has taken delivery of its first Embraer Phenom 300. The company has ordered 100 of the light jets, has options on 50 more and says it has already pre-sold the first three. The fractional firm is launching a 40-city U.S. tour in June to showcase the aircraft, which are scheduled to be delivered at a rate of about 10 per year and will be equipped with iPod docking stations and broadband wireless Internet.
