See with Pro

Pro feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.

Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

Benefits

Single-pilot com cabine de 8 PAX e alcance de 2.165 nm

O CJ4 combina certificação single-pilot (raridade nessa faixa) com cabine para 8 passageiros e alcance NBAA IFR de ~2.165 nm, capaz de fazer SP-Lima ou Manaus-SP direto. Para owner-flown corporativo, é o sweet-spot entre Phenom 300E e Praetor 500.

Cessna CJ4 Spec Sheet

Belted lavatory com porta plena e galley separada

Diferente dos CJ menores, o CJ4 oferece lavatório com porta plena e galley dedicada na entrada, diferenciador real frente ao Phenom 300E em missões corporativas formais e charters de alto padrão.

Limitations

Velocidade Mach 0.77 vs Mach 0.80 do Phenom 300E

O CJ4 cruza em Mach 0.77 (~451 kt), abaixo dos 464 kt do Phenom 300E. Em rotas SP-MIA com tech stop, a diferença pode chegar a 15-20 minutos, fator que vendedores Embraer exploram em comparativos diretos.

Curiosities

Recorde de volta ao mundo single-pilot em jato executivo

Em 2017, o piloto Bill Harrelson completou volta ao mundo em CJ4 single-pilot, feito que reforçou a confiabilidade dos motores Williams FJ44 e da plataforma para missões longas e exigentes.
