Embraer may develop full composite aircraft

According to British "Flight International" website reported on May 4, 2011] Embraer CEO Frederico Curado revealed to analysts yesterday that the company is considering the development of a full-compound narrow-body passenger aircraft. Curado said: "Boeing has announced that the competitive advantage of single-channel alternatives is very obvious, and Brazilian airlines should adopt 'a series of strategic measures', including improvements on existing models, such as the extension of E-Jets; Our long-term strategy is to develop a new type of aircraft when a new blank area is discovered, and it is very likely that it will be a full-blown aircraft.” Curado’s statement indicates that Brazilian Airlines is studying full composite aircraft design to deal with the Airbus A320neo and Bombardier. Challenges for the C Series and 737 successors. Boeing CEO Jim McNerney recently said that the newly developed aircraft in the market are mostly concentrated in 145 to 185 seats, thereby rendering 200-seat 757-200 dual-channel alternatives meaningless. However, the U.S. aircraft manufacturer is not eager to announce its response before the Paris Airshow.

Curado said: "This phase is very difficult for us. I really do not know exactly what Boeing company intends to do." He said that this issue is not a question of whether Boeing has adopted 145 seats, but how Boeing has optimized it. Layout its new core model problem. At the same time he added: "If Boeing uses 145 seats, then it is very likely that they will develop the smallest series of aircraft to occupy an important position in the market. If the newly-developed aircraft seat becomes bigger, I think it will be mentioned by him earlier. 145 to 185, or a similarly sized model, so if Boeing's newly-developed models get bigger, then our market space will be bigger than it is now.So I'm hard to evaluate other people's actions right now. But I want What is reiterated is that as long as the Boeing Company is found to make the final decision, we will immediately take action and make our decision on the next step in the civil aircraft market."
