VisionSafe Corporation has announced that its EVAS technology is now available on the Legacy 600 and 650 as an STC, and on the Phenom 100 and 300 as loose equipment. In addition to the Legacy 600/650 and Phenom aircraft, VisionSafe will soon have STCs available for the Lineage 1000E and Praetor 500 and 600, reflecting the continuous improvement Embraer is bringing to its successful business jets portfolio.

Embraer has always emphasised safety as one of the most important pillars with all of its aircraft,” says Chris Skurat, director of sales for business aviation at VisionSafe. “This partnership with Embraer expands a longstanding relationship that now continues with its innovative business aviation models."

With over 8,000 EVAS units installed worldwide, VisionSafe takes pride in making safety a number one priority in aviation. Its corporate headquarters are in Honolulu, Hawaii with offices in Teterboro, New Jersey.
