Fairchild Dornier Envoy 9

General Aviation and Light Aircraft

The Fairchild Dornier Envoy 9 was the corporate jet version planned for the 928, the stretched member of the Fairchild Dornier regional jet family, whose fuselage would have carried 95 to 110 passengers as an airliner. The 928 was to follow the 728 into service with a longer wing span and more powerful General Electric CF34-10 engines, and the Envoy 9 was planned alongside it, together with the Envoy 5 for the 528 and the Envoy 7 for the 728. Everything known about the type rests on plans. Fairchild Dornier became insolvent on 2 April 2002, before the first 728 flew, so no Envoy 9 was built or delivered.
