    Embraer gears up for Singapore Airshow

    Embraer is set to display its growing portfolio of aircraft at the Singapore Airshow on 20-25 February, as the company looks to strengthen its presence in Asia Pacific

    The Brazilian aircraft manufacturer, which also has an office in Beijing, will showcase its aircraft solutions for defense and security, commercial aviation, and business aviation, including the Asian debut of subsidiary Eve Air Mobility.

    The biennial industry event in Singapore gathers the most influential players in international aerospace and defense, and Embraer excited to show the collective strength of its aircraft lineup.

    Making their debut at the show are Embraer’s C-390 Millenium for military transport aircraft and the Praetor 600 business jet. The C-390 was recently selected by South Korea’s Defense Acquisition Program Administration (DAPA), whilst the Praetor 600 was delivered to South Korea’s flight inspection centre at end-2023.

    On its debut, Eve Air Mobility will be presenting an overview of its eVTOL, services and operations solutions including its Urban Air Traffic Management software solution.

    The company will have its full-size eVTOL cabin mockup on display, marking its first trip to Asia Pacific as part of its world tour. Eve and will also offer visitors a unique virtual reality (VR) flight experience.

    Also joining the lineup at this year’s Airshow with a brand new ‘Tech Eagle’ livery is the E195-E2 commercial jet, which doubled in deliveries last year and got firm orders from Scoot.

    “Our presence in Asia Pacific is growing and the Airshow provides us a great platform to further interact with the aerospace and defense communities across the region,” said Francisco Gomes Neto, President and CEO at Embraer.

    Embraer E2 jets gain type certification in Singapore

    Embraer’s E190-E2 and E195-E2 have attained type certification from the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS).  Scoot, low-cost subsidiary of Singapore Airlines, is due to operate the E190-E2 from 2024.

    The E190-E2 and E195-E2, considered the world’s quietest and most fuel-efficient single-aisle aircraft, were certified by three key civil aviation authorities in 2018 and 2019, which include the FAA in the US, EASA in Europe and ANAC in Brazil. 

    Embraer and CAE recently announced plans to establish a state-of-the-art E2 full flight simulator and pilot training programme in Singapore, which will commence operations by the end of this year. The full flight simulator is based at the Singapore-CAE Flight Training Centre which is located at SIA Training Centre.

  • Embraer Selects DHL for Worldwide Bizjet Logistics

    Embraer Selects DHL for Worldwide Bizjet Logistics

    Embraer Executive Jets and DHL have teamed up on a new global logistics model designed specifically for business aviation. With 930 executive jets (and increasing to more than 1,000 next year) flying in some 60 counties, Embraer clearly has the need for sophisticated logistics support.

    “We have been continuously improving our customers’ experience in all aspects, thanks to relevant actions taken in process quality and support infrastructure,” said Waldir Goncalves, Embraer senior vice-president of customer support and services worldwide. “I’m glad that DHL will join us for this unparalleled global logistics model for business aviation.”

    According to Peter Bonte, DHL’s vice president global business development server parts logistics, “DHL has a network of several locations around the world and we have selected the best of these locations to support Embraer’s customers. Some of the locations are Memphis, Belgium, Dubai and Singapore.” Some warehouses are multi-customer, but all warehouses are certified to distribute parts for Embraer. DHL segregates a part of the building for Embraer and Embraer has people in each location to manage the operation.

    Embraer selected DHL because of its global footprint and relevant experience in the aerospace industry. The logistics service will provide overnight deliveries even when an order comes in late in the day. An integrated ITsolution will offer real-time visibility and improved tracking.

    Asked if Embraer is considering using dedicated AOG (aircraft on the ground) business jets to ferry parts and technicians, Goncalves replied, “No, because now we have hundreds of [DHL] airplanes delivering parts around the world, so if I select just one or two jets, it is not comparable. The logistic model we have selected is much more powerful–we can get parts where we need, when we need. It’s a difference in concept.”
