The day before this year's LABACE show opened, Marco Túlio Pellegrini, president and CEO of Embraer Executive Jets, told AIN that Embraer’s aircraft offer Brazil a powerful facilitator of economic development. His statement came on the day that the Brazilian Senate was debating the legacy of president Dilma Roussef, who will be impeached on Wednesday if a two-thirds vote is reached, as is widely expected.
