Embraer has begun construction of three new U.S. service centers for executive jets. The Brazilian airframer broke ground on one facility at Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks, Conn., in late July. It expects to have this center operational by the middle of next year. Last month, work began on its base at Hollywood International Airport in Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Construction on a third service center is under way at Williams Gateway Airport in Mesa, Ariz.

The combined $40 million investments are part of the company’s effort to boost its after-sales capability for the Legacy, Lineage and Phenom business jets.
