Hoʻolaha ʻo Embraer a me NetJets i $5 Billion Deal

No ka hoʻomau ʻana i ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka ʻike honua hilinaʻi a me ka lawelawe kūikawā i nā NetJets Owners a me kā lākou mau malihini, ua kau inoa ʻo NetJets i kahi kuʻikahi hou me Embraer no nā koho jet 250 Praetor 500, kahi i loaʻa kahi lawelawe piha a me ka ʻaelike kākoʻo. ʻOi aku ka waiwai o ka ʻaelike ma mua o US $5 biliona, me nā hoʻopuka e manaʻo ʻia e hoʻomaka i 2025, a ʻo ia ka manawa mua o NetJets e hāʻawi i ka midsize Praetor 500 i nā mea kūʻai. No nā makahiki he ʻumi, ua hoʻohana ʻo NetJets i kā Embraer's Phenom 300 series—kekahi o nā mokulele i noi nui ʻia e NetJets.

Ua hoʻomaka ka pilina ma waena o Embraer a me NetJets i ka makahiki 2010 i ka wā i kākau mua ai ʻo NetJets i kahi ʻaelike kūʻai no 50 Phenom 300 mokulele, me nā koho hou aʻe he 75. Ma 2021, ma hope o ka hoʻopuka maikaʻi ʻana o Embraer ma luna o 100 mokulele, ua kau inoa nā hui i kahi kuʻikahi hoʻomau a hiki i 100 mau mokulele Phenom 300/E, ʻoi aku ma mua o $ 1.2 biliona.

Me kēia ʻaelike hou, hōʻike ʻo NetJets ʻaʻole wale i kāna kūpaʻa i ka hoʻokumu ʻana i kahi ʻike mea kūʻai aku i hoʻonui ʻia e like me ka awelika o ka ʻoihana ma luna o 1,200 mau mokulele honua i kēlā me kēia lā akā ʻo kona hilinaʻi hoʻi i ka waihona alakaʻi ʻoihana a Embraer a me ke kākoʻo kiʻekiʻe e hāʻawi i ka ʻike hope loa i NetJets nā mea kūʻai.

"Mai ka makahiki 2010, ua hauʻoli ʻo Embraer i ka hoʻokō mau ʻana o NetJets i kā mākou mokulele alakaʻi ʻoihana, he hōʻike maoli ia i ka waiwai o kā mākou brand a me ko mākou hiki ke hāʻawi i ka ʻike hope loa i ka mokulele ʻoihana," wahi a Michael Amalfitano, Pelekikena a Luna Nui o Embraer Executive Jets. "ʻO kā mākou hui hoʻolālā he ʻāpana koʻikoʻi o kā mākou ulu ʻoihana, me ka lawe ʻana o NetJets i nā koho lawe mokulele āpau i kauoha ʻia me Embraer mai ka wā i hoʻomaka ai. Ma hope o ke kūkulu ʻana i kēia kahua kūleʻa me ka Phenom 300 series, ʻoliʻoli mākou i ke kau inoa ʻana i kēia kuʻikahi monumental no ka Praetor 500 midsize jet, a ke kakali nei mākou i kahi wā e hiki mai ana.

"Ke makemake nui nei mākou e hoʻohui i ka Embraer Praetor 500, kekahi o nā mokulele ʻoihana hou loa i kēia lā, i kā mākou ʻauwaʻa midsize," wahi a Doug Henneberry, Hope Pelekikena Hoʻokele o NetJets Aircraft Asset Management. “ʻO kēia kuʻikahi mōʻaukala ʻauwaʻa kahi ala ʻē aʻe e ulu ai kā mākou mau ʻauwaʻa no ka pono o kā mākou mea kūʻai kūpaʻa. Ma ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā mokulele 250 i kā mākou mau ʻauwaʻa, e hoʻomau mākou i ka hāʻawi ʻana i nā NetJets Owners me ka lawelawe kūikawā a me ke komo ʻole ʻana i nā kihi āpau o ka honua.

ʻO ka Praetor 500 ka mokulele ʻoihana hoʻonanea a me ka ʻenehana holomua o ka honua, e kaena ana i kahi ʻano maikaʻi maikaʻi loa i loko o ka papa—e hiki ai i ke kahakai a hiki i ke kahakai ʻo US ka wikiwiki alakaʻi alakaʻi ʻoihana, a me ka hoʻokō ʻana i ke ala holo ʻole. Ma ke ʻano o ka ʻenehana, ʻo ia wale nō ka mokulele i kāna ʻāpana me nā mana lele lele-by-wire piha.

ʻAʻole wale ka Praetor 500 e hāʻawi i ka hana ʻokoʻa akā hāʻawi pū kekahi o nā ʻike hale ʻoluʻolu loa. Hōʻike ia i ka haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa kiʻekiʻe i loko o kāna papa, a me ka kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe a me ka laulā ākea o ka māhele. Hoʻohui ʻia, hāʻawi ia i kahi keʻena papahele paʻa, papahele pōhaku, kahi ʻauʻau hoʻomaʻemaʻe, a me nā wahi ukana nui, me kahi keʻena ukana i loko.
