Embraer and Fokker Services announced at the Farnborough Airshow today that they intend to deepen their collaboration.
Regarding the projects with closer collaboration, the companies say they are looking at aftermarket support topics such as aircraft modifications and customisation, programme support, logistics, repair services as well as other support opportunities.
The companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in October 2021 which also includes Fokker Techniek.
In May, Embraer announced the selection of Fokker Services to provide maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) services, covering a series of engine line replaceable units enrolled in Embraer’s Pool Program, supporting Embraer’s first-generation E170, E175, E190 and E195.
The multi-year agreement includes more than 60-part numbers of engine LRUs.
In the roadmap for opportunities that is under discussion for the commercial aviation market, engineering, repair, and logistics support will be key elements to be explored, in addition to hydrogen-powered aircraft development.
