"Our support on Embraer aircraft is constantly evolving. With focus now on component repairs, we cover avionics, instruments, hydraulics and pneumatics across ERJ135, ERJ145, E170 and E190 aircraft types. For our portfolio of capabilities, we have strong ties with major OEMs. Last year we entered a seven-year overhaul and repair offload agreement with Collins Aerospace for pneumatic capabilities including bleed air valves. For Integrated Drive Generators (IDGs), we are a Hamilton Sundstrand warranty repair station, supported by an on-site stock agreement. When it comes to engine accessories and line replaceable units (LRUs), we are a Honeywell Aerospace authorized service center. Modifications for Embraer aircraft include the Underwater Locator Device (ULD) and Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) with a USB-C power supply option."
Tell us about the MoU you signed with Embraer last year.
"We intend to explore a wide range of opportunities across engineering, component, and airframe services with the intention to commit to win-win opportunities with a focus on the following main areas: Defense, Commercial, Services and Development. We see different ways that Fokker Services and Fokker Techniek capabilities can fuse together, creating impactful tailor-made solutions for Embraer and its customers, developed with the full support from Embraer."
With every new capability we develop, operators can enjoy the benefits of our continuous optimization loop.
