Embraer has been extending its reach with airliners, thanks to the benefits the airliners see in the E-Jet E2 family.
BRAZILIAN AEROSPACE AND DEFENCE major Embraer is firmly set on achieving its aircraft production targets and that is not at all surprising. Recently, Embraer announced that it was on course to delivery of its first E195-E2 jet in the first half of 2019 to Brazil’s Azul Linhas Aéreas. In 2014, Azul placed an order for up to 50 E195-E2s. The carrier is both the launch customer and launch operator of the aircraft. This endorsement by Azul goes a long way to boost airline operator confidence, not just in Brazil, but across continents. Since it acquired its first E-Jet back in 2008, Azul has captured one-third of Brazil’s domestic market. Today, it flies more than 70 E-Jets and is the carrier with the largest fleet of E195s in the world.
Embraer has been extending its reach with airliners, thanks to the benefits the airliners see in the E-Jet E2 family. The E195-E2 is the largest aircraft in that family, the others being E175-E2 and E190-E2, giving airline operators the flexibility of positioning their fleet for short to medium haul operations.
LOW FUEL BURN
The E195-E2 has been designed to maximise returns and efficiency on high-density routes. With its high-aspect ratio wings and swept tips, combined with other aerodynamic improvements, the E195-E2 achieves double digit lower fuel consumption compared to current-generation E-Jets. It is ideally positioned between larger, new-generation, single-aisle jets and smaller capacity equipment. Flying in mainline, regional or low fare environments, the operating economics of the E195-E2 are the best among aircraft in this category. Compared to E195 with 106 passengers, the E195-E2 with 120 passengers has -24 per cent per seat less fuel burn.

TRUMP'S VICTORY: WHAT WILL IT UNFOLD FOR INDIA
For India, one of the most significant aspects of Trump's return will be his approach to China. There is a possibility that Trump will continue to view India through a transactional lens, prioritising trade deficits and economic returns. The role which the US plays as the global tech powerhouse is the model for future growth which cuts across economy to security. In all potential, there are mostly positive signs, rather another defining era for Indo-US relations could unfold if indicators are right. The convergence of mutual interest for both democracies is too obvious.
