Brazilian government opposes the acquisition of Embraer by Boeing
Sao Paulo - Boeing wants to take over Embraer or merge with the South American manufacturer. But Brazilian President Michel Temer is against the sale of the national aircraft manufacturer to the Americans. (airlinerwatch.com) Plus d'info...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Brazil does not need the "Leftist" Boeing getting in and messing up Embraer. Forget it Boeing. Stay in your leftist Washington with the illegal cheap labor....Boeing is becoming a real pest.
Boeing is the Donald J. Trump of the aviation world. No one trusts Boeing and after pissing off Canada with the Bombardier nonsense, they are going to be slowing setting in the western sky... it will decades, certainly, but more and more airlines are going to feel the pressure to disassociate with Boeing. It is a good thing they don't have a membership in the UN... please one company and 128 will gore you for it.
Now bear with me, if Avro still existed and wanted to merge with ,let's say Boeing, what would the US Government say?
Many of you are posting from a management point of view. I post from a pilot point of view. The CRJ-200 was a piece of crap. The ERJ-140,145 and 170 series are great airplanes to fly. The big players are just going to screw this up. There are only two top dogs---Boeing and Airbus with totally different systems. There is a place for the Embraer and Bombardier aircraft now that they have come out with newer airframes and avionics. You can't fly a 300 seat aircraft on a route that only supports 100 people and make a profit.
As a Canadian, I am angry to see this announcement from Boeing/Embraer right on the tail of Boeing's challenge to the entry of Bombardier's C Series into the U.S. Boeing has not had an aircraft with the capacity of the C Series jets since the 737-100, and yet it claimed Bombardier were competition. Bullshit, Boeing. Now the truth emerges with Boeing wanting to get Embraer. So, put a block on Bombardier so we can get a head start with Embraer, is that it Boeing? I used to like your company, your tactics are abusive and destructive. Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Hope the Brazilian Government see through your schemes.
Typical American business practice.
