Slattery unfazed by slow E175-E2 sales

摘要

Embraer aims to secure orders for the smallest E-Jet E2 variant in the coming months as it targets non-US customers for the E175-E2. Meanwhile, production of the original E175-E1 could continue alongside the re-engined variant "forever" as Embraer awaits a widening of US pilot scope clauses. The first Pratt & Whitney PW1700G-powered E175-E2 was flown on 12 December, despite Embraer currently holding no firm orders for the latest and final E-Jet derivative to be developed.
