Briefing

What Hype is tracking

  • Certification would establish a new automated capability for the E2 family, with Embraer citing safety and increased takeoff weights as intended benefits.
  • The FAA’s action is a step in the approval process, not confirmation that certification is complete; the technology’s operational deployment depends on further regulatory progress.
  • The development builds on Embraer’s effort to certify automatic takeoff on E2 jets, which would automate rotation and the initial takeoff phase.
