The Fairchild Dornier Envoy 5 was the corporate jet version planned for the 528, the shortened member of the Fairchild Dornier regional jet family, which was to seat 55 to 65 passengers. It was planned alongside the Envoy 7, the corporate version of the 728, and the Envoy 9, the corporate version of the 928, within a family whose variants were meant to share a high degree of commonality in engine type and flight deck. Everything known about the type rests on plans. The 528 itself drew little interest from the airlines and was quietly removed from the family plan, and Fairchild Dornier became insolvent on 2 April 2002, before the first 728 flew, so no Envoy 5 was built or delivered.
