Embraer Caps 2021 4Q with 55 Deliveries

Ends Quarter Slightly Below 2020 Numbers, Delivers 11 More Planes Over Year

Brazil's favorite (i.e. only) jet manufacturer announced its 2021 finish with 55 deliveries, split with 16 commercial aircraft and 39 executive jets. That number flagged a bit in comparison to the 4th quarter 2020 numbers, which saw 71 deliveries with a 28/43 split. Overall, Embraer delivered 141 jets throughout 2021, besting its 2020 numbers by 11 aircraft.
