Embraer mulls next member of E-Jet family

Embraer has narrowed down the possibilities for its next phase of product development to two options, company CEO Frederico Curado told AIN on the eve of this Farnborough airshow. Either it will re-engine its existing line of E-Jets or develop an all-new, larger airliner–or even perhaps opt for both, likely by the end of this year.

“We don’t have a hard deadline,” said Curado, “but I would guess probably before the year ends we’ll either have a decision or at least some sort
of conclusion [about what direction we will likely go.]”
