SINGAPORE: He's into Kung Fu, philanthropy, food, sport and now jets!
But the closest you'll get to Jackie Chan at the 2012 Singapore Airshow is his Embraer Legacy 650 executive jet, .
It's hard to miss with distinctive red and yellow dragon livery, and if that's not obvious enough, there's the name on the tail-wing.
The Kung Fu actor who has added on the role of brand ambassador for Embraer took delivery of China's first Legacy 650 in early February.
"We are exceptionally excited Jackie Chan will become the newest member of our Legacy 650 family, and proud he holds full confidence in our jet to satisfy his demand for productivity, comfort and privacy," said Ernest Edwards, President, Embraer Executive Jets.
Chan's "ebullient personality, spirit of relentless innovation and commitment to society" reflect Embraer's values, added Edwards who went on to describe the actor as "an ideal brand ambassador for Embraer Executive Jets".
Last seen in Holywood's remake of the "Karate Kid", the producer and co-producer of the Chinese epic "1911", will assist Embraer in promoting its entire line of executive aircraft, not only in the rapidly growing greater China market, but globally.
"I chose the Legacy 650 because its large three zone cabin, offering incredibly quiet performance and luxury," said the Hong Kong-born actor.
"I believe that Embraer is poised to become a major player in the Chinese executive jet market and thrilled to fulfill my role as brand ambassador for this great Company."
In addition to Jackie Chan's jet, Embraer received orders for 13 Legacy 650s from China's Minsheng Financial Leasing Co, Ltd, one of the country's leading executive jet leasing companies.
Apart from Chan's Legacy 650 executive jet, Embraer is making its Singapore Airshow debut with a fleet that includes commercial jets, and the Lineage and Phenom executive jets.
