The agreement provides Scoot with access to a Pool Program offering component exchanges and repair services for more than 300 parts required to maintain Embraer’s E190-E2 fleet.
Embraer has entered into a Pool Program services agreement with Scoot, an airline based in Singapore. This agreement is designed to support Scoot’s incoming fleet of nine E190-E2 aircraft. The agreement provides Scoot with access to a Pool Program that offers component exchanges and repair services for more than 300 repairable parts required to maintain Embraer’s E190-E2 aircraft. This allows Scoot to reduce upfront investments in high-value repairable inventories and resources while leveraging Embraer’s technical expertise and component repair service provider network.
The first batch of E190-E2 aircraft will be delivered to Scoot in 2024. These aircraft are recognized as the world’s most efficient and quietest single-aisle aircraft, offering modern and fuel-efficient options for airlines. Scoot’s operations will benefit from advanced maintenance features, including the AHEAD (Aircraft Health Analysis and Diagnosis) system, which enables early detection of critical systems issues, reducing technical interruptions and avoiding flight cancellations. The eSight system provides real-time fleet performance monitoring.
Ng Chee Keong, COO, Scoot said “This strategic arrangement with Embraer will minimise maintenance delays for the E190-E2, essentially boosting operational readiness.”
The E190-E2 and the E195-E2, part of the E-Jets E2 family, are known for having the longest maintenance intervals in the single-aisle jet category. With 10,000 flight hours for basic checks and no calendar limit for typical E-Jet operations, these aircraft can be operated with minimal downtime.
The E-Jets E2 family, including the E190-E2, builds upon the success and reliability of the first generation of E-Jets, with over 20 million hours of accrued experience. The first-generation E-Jet continues to be a popular choice for airlines worldwide, with over 80 airlines across 50 countries operating more than 1,700 units.
Carlos Naufel, President & CEO, Embraer Services & Support said “Working hand in hand with Scoot, we are gearing up for the E190-E2 entry into service next year. We are leveraging on Singapore’s solid aviation ecosystem and we look forward to Embraer’s modern, fuel-efficient E190-E2 take the skies in Scoot’s livery.”
Singapore serves as the central hub for Embraer’s services and support in the Asia Pacific region. Embraer has a Regional Distribution Centre within Changi Airport’s free trade zone and recently announced plans to establish a state-of-the-art E2 full flight simulator and pilot training program in Singapore, starting in 2023.
