The 2Q16 main highlight was the first flight of the E190-E2, the
first model of the second generation of the E-Jets family of
commercial jets. The flight occurred on May
23, just three months after the E190-E2 made its public
debut at a rollout ceremony at the factory in late February, and
before the date originally scheduled.
Also during the quarter, Embraer and Horizon Air signed a firm
order for 30 E175 jets, with options for another 33 aircraft of the
same model. The value of the contract is USD
2.8 billion, based on current list prices, if all the
options are exercised.
Other highlights included the debut of the E190 jet in
Japan with J-AIR, a subsidiary of
leading carrier Japan Airlines, bringing the number of E-Jets
operating across Japan to 28, and
the E-Jets debut in Portugal, with
TAP, under the TAP Express brand.
In business aviation, the main highlight was the deal with
Across, Mexico's premium business
aviation services provider, which signed a firm order for 23
business jets. The contract comprises the purchase of eight Legacy
500, eight Phenom 300 and seven Phenom 100E jets, with an estimated
value of over USD 260 million at
current list prices.
