Last week I had the opportunity to visit Embraer main facility at San Jose dos Campos. A tour through the facilities revealed a very enthusiastic group of people working on new aircraft. I saw various types at various stages of completion. The cockpit of the 190 was a beauty and has a clean design. A nice detail outside was the deployed Ram Air Turbine. Also the Phenom 100 is a nice small jet. Go see some pictures at www.embraer.com (it is not allowed to take pictures at their facilities)
Also we saw the Virgin Blue .com.au Embraer 170 ready for delivery. The crew had a celebration at the same hotel we were staying and it was nice to meet them.
