Embraer Praetor
The Praetor 500 and Praetor 600 are Embraer's midsize and super-midsize business jets, introduced as updates of the Legacy 450 and Legacy 500. They keep the same low-wing, T-tail layout with two Honeywell turbofans on the rear fuselage, and add winglets, more fuel and a full fly-by-wire system on the 500E and 600E. The EASA data sheet covers them as the EMB-545 and EMB-550 with a modification, and the Praetor names are marketing names. Embraer lists both as current. This site lists one page for each, with specifications only and no flight data.
