Embraer 170

KLM Cityhopper, the regional subsidiary of the Dutch flag carrier, is leasing in extra capacity over the northern hemisphere summer season.

When it rains in Darwin, on the northern tip of Australia, it really rains, which reduces scheduled air passenger traffic to and from the city.

Characterized as a serious incident, the near collision between a business jet and a commercial aircraft resulted in a minimal vertical separation of 665 ft.

Absent current industry constraints, regional carriers say the demand is there—in a market poised for evolution.

Can the aftermarket environment get any better?

Hydrogen-electric propulsion developer ZeroAvia has provided details of its launch platform and product road map for the first time.

Embraer expects to deliver 90-95 business jets and 45-50 commercial aircraft in 2021, up from 86 and 44, respectively in 2020 as the market recovers to pre-pandemic levels and growth continues, the company reported.

The dual-class, 76-seat regional jets will replace 16 aging Bombardier CRJ-900 aircraft that SkyWest operates under contracts set to expire in the second half of 2022 and early 2023.
