Eaton To Supply Phenom Parts

Embraer has selected Eaton Corp. to design, develop and manufacture secondary power distribution units and cockpit control panels for the Phenom 100 very light jet. Eaton has already won contracts for the Phenom’s hydraulic power-generation package, flap and landing gear control hydraulic components, throttle quadrant, landing gear control level and flap selector control lever. An Eaton spokesman said the company is pursuing additional Embraer contracts for the Phenom 300, as well as other new jet programs like the HondaJet.
