Fairchild Dornier Envoy 7

General Aviation and Light Aircraft

The Fairchild Dornier Envoy 7 was the corporate jet version of the 728 regional airliner, offered by Fairchild Dornier with intercontinental range and the company Super Shark winglets, and expected to enter service around 2004. Flight Options, a United States fractional ownership company, announced at the Paris Air Show in June 1999 that it would buy 25 Envoy 7 business jets, and the Lebanese holding group Safadi signed a letter of intent for one in November 1999. The Envoy 7 was never delivered, because Fairchild Dornier became insolvent in April 2002 before the 728 programme reached its first flight.
