Aircraft manufacturer Embraer says it delivered 47 jets in Q2 2024, reflecting an increase of 88 pc compared to the previous quarter, when 25 jets were delivered.

In a press statement, the Brazilian firm says that its overall backlog ended at USD 21.1 billion, more than 20 pc higher annually (yoy) and a 7-year high. Embraer says that in commercial aviation, the backlog reached USD 11.3 billion in Q2, 2024 and the main highlight of the period was the order for 20 E2 jets by Mexicana de Aviación, Mexico’s state-owned airline. The order includes 10 E190-E2 jets and another 10 E195-E2 jets, with deliveries scheduled to start in Q2, 2025. Other highlights were the delivery and start of operations of the first E190-E2 to Scoot, the low-cost subsidiary of Singapore Airlines (SIA).

It says that commercial aviation was the highlight of the quarter with 19 jets delivered, about 170 pc than Q1, 2024. Meanwhile, Executive Jets delivered a solid performance with 27 aircraft, up from 18 in Q1, 2024 and its defence wing delivered one multi-mission airlift C-390 Millennium.

The Sao Paulo based company says that it reached another important milestone with the delivery of its 1,800th E-Jet in May. The marquée aircraft was delivered to the leasing company Azorra and it will be operated by Royal Jordanian Airlines.

Executive jets continued to seize great sales momentum in both fleet and retail markets, demonstrating solid delivery performance and maintaining a positive book-to-bill ratio, says the aircraft maker, adding that the backlog ended the period marginally up at USD 4.6 billion in Q2, 2024, up 1 pc quarter on quarter.
