Index ≈ ×1.15 to ×1.48 on the aircraft value, already with ferry, ANAC nationalization, IPI and ICMS.
Market estimate: value + ferry + ANAC nationalization + taxes, no legal review. II, PIS and COFINS are 0% for aircraft (NCM 88.02); IPI is 6.5% (3.25% for air taxi) until Dec 31, 2026; ~4% ICMS only through a qualified importer (Agreement 75/91).
Operate = direct cost/hour (fuel + maintenance + engine); excludes fixed costs (hangar, crew, insurance). World: hourly rate published by charter operators. Brazil: charter is quoted per leg, so the hourly figure is an estimate from route quotes.

The Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante is a medium twin-engine turboprop produced between 1972 and 1990, the first transport aircraft built in series by Embraer. In the typical configuration it carries 17 passengers and reaches 18 seats, with a range of 1,184 nm, a cruise speed of 220 kt, a maximum takeoff weight of 5,900 kg, and a service ceiling of 21,500 ft. It is an aircraft designed for short runways and little infrastructure, a common profile in Brazilian regional aviation. Since production ended, supply today is of used aircraft, and the value of each registration depends on the airframe history, the condition of the engines, and compliance with airworthiness directives.
How much runway the EMB-110 Bandeirante needs to dispatch: the manual figure and what the charter (RBAC 135) rule requires.
Dispatches under charter rules at 220 of 465 Brazilian public runways when dry, and at 220 when wet.

Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.
The IPD-6504 prototype (which would become the EMB-110) first flew on October 26, 1968, designed by French engineer Max Holste in partnership with Brazil's CTA. Embraer was formally founded on August 19, 1969 specifically to industrialize the project. The Bandeirante is literally Embraer's reason for existing; without it, there would be no E-Jets, Phenom or Praetor decades later.
Of the 498 units produced, more than 350 were exported to more than 36 countries, including major operators such as SkyWest (USA), DLT (Germany), Air Littoral (France), Aeronaves del Centro (Mexico) and several European air forces. The Bandeirante broke the paradigm that the aeronautical industry of a developing country could not compete in mature markets, paving the way for the ERJ-145 and the E-Jets.
Designed to connect Brazilian cities with poor runways (gravel, grass, deteriorated asphalt), the Bandeirante takes off in 762 m and lands in 518 m at full MTOW. Reinforced landing gear, high propellers and simple structure allowed operation at destinations that foreign turboprops could not handle. It still operates today in the Amazon and Africa in rough conditions.
With a used market between USD 250k-750k and an operating cost of USD 950/hour, the Bandeirante is today the cheapest way to operate a 19-seat twin turboprop. Brazilian cargo operators (Sideral, Total) and African operators keep the aircraft economically viable decades after the end of production.
The Bandeirante flies at altitudes up to 21,500 ft without pressurization, requiring oxygen use above 10,000 ft and significantly degrading comfort at medium altitudes. On routes with weather obstacles (CBs in tropical regions), the inability to climb above the clouds is the biggest operational limitation. That is why it was succeeded by the pressurized EMB-120 Brasília.
Embraer's official founding date (08/19/1969) is celebrated every year, and the Bandeirante is displayed at all of the company's institutional milestones, including the Asas de um Sonho museum in São José dos Campos. Embraer president Francisco Gomes Neto and founders Ozires Silva and Ozildo Cordeiro de Almeida are often quoted linking the company's current success to the 'Bandeirante leap' of the 1970s.

The Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante is out of production, so there is no factory price. On the used market the median is around US$ 830,000, varying with year and flight hours; see real listings on this model's Market tab. Reference value as of 06/2026.
The maximum range is 1060 nm (1,060 NM · 1,963 km).
Cruise speed is 220 kt, equivalent to 407 km/h.
The Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante has 18 seats in total, counting the pilot seat: up to 16 passengers.
There are 15 active units in the RAB-ANAC (data as of 11/11/2026): operational, mark reservation or suspended, excluding cancelled registrations.
8 distinct operators operate 12 units of the Embraer EMB-110 Bandeirante in the RAB-ANAC: 9 in air taxi (RBAC 135) and 3 in private operation (RBAC 91), concentrated in AM, SP and MS (data as of 11/11/2026). Another 2 units are under registration reservation (tail number reserved, not yet operating). Not included in that count: 1 unit run by a public body (police, fire department or government). Name, fleet and state of each operator are on this model's Analytics tab and in the operators directory.
Jet Tracker estimate: about US$ 3,276 per flight hour at 200 h/year, of which US$ 1,846 per hour is variable cost (fuel, engine program, maintenance reserves) plus US$ 285,880 per year of fixed cost (crew, hangar, insurance), under Jet Tracker's default assumptions (Southeast Brazil, in-house crew, 200 h/year).
