The Embraer - Bombardier Face-Off
|
Competition in the market for regional jets intensified in the late 1990s. Until
the launch of the ERJ-145, Bombardier had been the dominant player in the
regional jet market, with its family of CRJ aircraft. (Bombardier's CRJ-100,
delivered to Lufthansa in 1992, had been the first 50-seat jet aircraft in
aviation history.) At the end of 2005, Bombardier had more orders and deliveries
than Embraer. But Embraer had more orders on hand. Besides, the net increase in
the number of orders over the previous year was higher for Embraer than for
Bombardier. The regional jet market had also been growing very rapidly since the

1995 and 2005, Embraer had accounted for eight billion dollars
of Brazil's trade balance.
Analysts acknowledged that Embraer contributed significantly to
Brazil's economic development and had had a positive impact on
the country's international image... |
