captain andi mufty Pangerang, who was a commercial pilot for two decades, works for Jakarta-based bosowa aviation, which operates a legacy 600 and a Phenom 300. captain Pangerang, who is from south celebes in indonesia, obtained his pilot’s license in 1993 and worked for a number of airlines in several management positions—including chief pilot and flight operations manager—before transitioning to corporate aviation in 2013.

Q: how did you become involved in aviation?

My passion in aviation started when I was five, and only grew stronger when I decided to obtain my pilot’s certificate from Australian Aviation College in Adelaide, South Australia in 1992. My first job after graduating in 1993 was with Merpati Airlines, a subsidiary of Garuda Indonesia, and i worked at several other airlines in indonesia in a variety of management roles before joining corporate aviation.

Q: When did you first fly the Phenom 300 and Legacy 600 and what characteristics of these aircraft impress you most?

My first flight in the Legacy 600 occurred in July 2013. The Legacy 600 is a tremendous airplane for its class, and during my first flight I was pleasantly surprised by the aircraft’s handling and performance, and I found the aircraft very stable and easy to fly. The Legacy 600 also provides a huge, comfortable cabin, is fuel efficient and is very reliable. Combining these features with the quality and options offered by embraer, very competitive pricing and strong customer support, it is no wonder that the Legacy 600 is very successful.

My first Phenom 300 flight was in October 2013 during the acceptance flight. I liked the new avionics and cockpit layout, and the phenom 300’s climb performance was impressive. the phenom 300 provides sophisticated technology and performance, and the cabin layout is one of the best in the market. it provides more head and leg room than any other aircraft in its class, and with competitive pricing and embraer’s strong customer support, i am not surprised the phenom 300 became the best seller in the market.

Q: please describe your experience as an embraer customer?

i was introduced to embraer when i joined corporate aviation, and my experience as an embraer customer is very good. Embraer provides strong support, especially through its field support team, who always provide a quick response when needed. plus, most of the spare parts are available within the region, which really enhances our operation.

Q: Would you like to share a specific experience with Customer Support?

Last year on a post-flight inspection we discovered that the fan blades on the Legacy 600 were damaged by bird strike. We immediately reported the incident to our embraer Field service representative and rolls-royce. the response was very prompt and after two days of damage assessment we were cleared to ferry the aircraft to an Authorized Maintenance Facility for further repair.

in another incident, we discovered that one of our main wheel tires did not meet regulations. We called the embraer Contact Center for a new tire and we received it the next day.

An experienCe with eeC denise dAntAs, AirCrAFt mAnAGer, ConstremAC (brAzil)

Q: how does eeC make Constremac’s operations smooth and more efficient?

eeC brings us peace of mind because the program ensures any interruption to operations will be short.

Q: what is eeC’s greatest advantage for Constremac?

the greatest advantage is the parts availability and rapid response, without much bureaucracy/paperwork.

Q: would you recommend eeC? And why?

Everything about EEC is efficient. There is little paperwork, parts are replaced quickly and technicians arrive promptly, all of which helps us to maintain operations, often without affecting passengers’ schedules.

We also have the financial peace of mind that comes with using eeC.

it also helps that eeC enhances the value of our aircraft in case we ever decide to sell.

in our continuing effort to provide the industry’s best products and services, embraer executive Jets

offers a comprehensive maintenance program, the embraer executive Care (eeC), which is designed to directly support our customers’ budget planning and implementation.

three packages are available under the eeC program, each designed to meet our customers’ specific needs. For a period of five years payments of a fixed monthly amount are made, in addition to an hourly rate for hours flown. This cost structure enables customers to have maintenance predictability and mitigate cost variations. the three options are:

• eeC standard: this package covers aircraft components such as avionics and auxiliary power units, tires and brakes for scheduled and unscheduled maintenance. Freight costs are included.

• eeC intermediate: this package, which is currently available for our Legacy 600, Legacy 650 and Lineage 1000 customers, provides coverage for labor and heavy maintenance costs in addition to all the options available under embraer executive Care standard.

• eeC enhanced: our premium package provides all the coverage available under eeC standard as well as labor costs for all levels of maintenance. eeC enhanced also provides mobile recovery services to help with unexpected events at remote locations.

For phenom engine maintenance support, we offer the eeC engine Add-on option, complementing the eeC and the eagle servicetm plan (esp®) programs to provide a nose-to-tail maintenance plan. For our other jets, customers need to contact their engine manufacturer.

the eeC complements the warranty by covering unexpected costs associated with scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, rescue teams, wear and tear, as well as the exchange, repair and transport of parts, such as tires, brakes and batteries. it also manages all supplier costs, which provides our customers with considerable cost savings in parts, repair management and logistics.

Added to this peace of mind is the knowledge that with eeC our customers are also enhancing the residual value of their jet. eeC continues to grow, with over 400 aircraft now enrolled in the program. our customers’ experience and feedback continue to play an important

The EEC program continues to evolve and the benefit of this program has reached many parts of the world where our aircraft operate.

salesforce | new Technology Provides beTTer cusTomer suPPorT and services

Efficiency is a central tenet of Embraer Executive Jets’ customer support philosophy. the introduction of a new cloud-based customer relationship management (Crm ) system, developed by world renowned IT firm SalesForce.com, is enabling us to excel in our efforts to ensure each of our aircraft successfully complete every mission.

These case files are monitored around the clock by a dedicated team of agents at our Customer Contact Center, who are able to immediately check if the incoming case file is an AOG, a critical technical issue or a routine question. this team analyzes and classifies each case, which may be addressed by a second level of support that provides expert analysis, when applicable.

the salesForce.com Crm system also logs all interaction between our customers and the Contact Center and links every interaction to the relevant aircraft and customer.

embraer executive Jets’ Field support representatives and Customer Account managers around the world use the system to retrieve and record customer information quickly and easily.

embraer executive Jets adopted salesForce.com a couple years ago. this tool, which ultimately benefits our customers, is constantly enhancing its technology, and we plan to continue to implement relevant new features to continuously improve our level of support and service.

cusTomer evenTs | embraer exTends reach of execuTive oPeraTors conferences

the embraer executive operators Conferences (eeoCs) is proving very successful, and each year more customers are meeting with embraer representatives, service center teams and suppliers to discuss support, services and program developments and receive updates with in-depth technical, maintenance and flight operations insights through interactive workshops and panel sessions.

With 15 EEOCs in 2014—including our first in China for legacy and lineage jets—and a further eight mini Conferences with our fleet customers, met some 500 customers and operators throughout the year. these operator sessions have always been key to the continuous improvement of our customers’ operations, and with over 800 embraer business jets now operating worldwide, the importance of these meetings is only more acute.

in recognition of this importance, we held the eeoC phenom usA this year, in coordination with the phenom Jet Association’s annual conference in idaho, and we flew the Legacy 500 to the event to share it with our phenom customers.

“the more familiar we become with each other and with the issues we face, the more resources we are able to develop to address our challenges,” says edson Carlos mallaco, embraer executive Jets’ vice president, Customer support and services.

one of those additional resources is a two-day Flight operations engineering Course (FoeC) that is offered to pilots two days before the eeoC. this invaluable course—which has a high level of participation—provides training in aircraft performance, dispatch and air safety.

started in 2011, the FoeC program is now provided around the world,in Asia Pacific, Central and South America, emeA and China. more than 400 customers, pilots, instructors and embraer employees have been trained in these four years.

in addition to the eeoCs, dedicated Customer support and services teams also attend the major airshows, including AbACe, ebACe, lAbACe, nbAA and the singapore Airshow.

We encourage you to review the upcoming events and EEOCs for next year and come join us in 2015!
