EMBRAER PRAETOR 500 Embraer’s Praetor 500 is the farthest- and fastest-flying midsize jet on the market today and reaches a top speed of 615 miles per hour. It can transport nine passengers and has a six-ft-tall, flat-floor cabin with stone flooring. The cabin’s interior design, called Bossa Nova, is a reimagination of the beaches of Brazil, where Embraer’s headquarters is located; the silk-and- wool carpets mimic the waves of the sparkling ocean and the stitch pattern

on the seats is inspired by the walkways of Ipanema Beach. embraer.com
