On September 30, 2015, the firm
order backlog totaled USD 22.1
billion. The largest order announced during this period came
from SkyWest, Inc. for 18 E175 jets, with an estimated value of
USD 800 million, based on the current
list price. The aircraft will be operated by SkyWest Airlines,
under an amendment to the existing Capacity Purchase Agreement with
United Airlines.
In 3Q15, Embraer delivered the first Legacy 500 midsize jet to a
customer in Mexico. The aircraft
will be operated by Transpais Aereo, a subsidiary of the Lomex
Group Aeronautics Division. Another new customer of the Legacy 500
announced during the quarter was Dallas-based Flexjet LLC, a leading provider
of fractional jet ownership services. Flexjet's fractional program
already features the Embraer Phenom 300 light jet.
Another achievement during the quarter came from the business
mid-light jet Legacy 450, which has received type certification
from the aeronautical authorities of Brazil, United
States and Europe, opening
up prospects in a new niche.
