At a press conference in Warsaw, the company's CEO, Francisco Gomes Neto, saw several opportunities in the European country, including the sale of the C-390, E2 jets to LOT and also a cargo conversion base
The European authority's approval was given last year as an update to the aircraft's registration. The E-Freighter conversion program was launched in 2022 with the goal of transforming E190 and E195 regional jets into freighters
Conversion of E190 and E195 jets to freighters has only had one aircraft delivered, which has been at the manufacturer's headquarters since the end of January
The converted jet is part of the manufacturer's E-Freighter program, which aims to occupy a niche between cargo turboprops and larger planes such as the A320PF and the 737-800BCF
