Fractional ownership company Executive AirShare said Friday it took delivery of an Embraer Phenom 300 light business jet, the Kansas City, Mo.-based company’s 30th Phenom jet.

The delivery was made Thursday at Embraer’s headquarters in Brazil. It will ferry the aircraft beginning Saturday to Kansas City.

The airplane will be based in Houston.

Executive AirShare placed a new firm order for five Phenom 300s in 2015, and Thursday’s delivery was its second from the order.

The $9 million list-price jet has seating for up to 10 passengers and a range of 1,971 nautical miles.

Executive AirShare was founded in Wichita, where it continues to operate a maintenance facility and serve fractional owners who live in the area.
