The Embraer E190-E2 and E195-E2, the world's most fuel-efficient and quiet single-aisle aircraft, have been awarded type acceptance certificates by the Mongolia Civil Aviation Authority (MCAA). This milestone paves the way for the introduction of the advanced E-Jets E2 family into Mongolia's growing aviation market.
The certification follows rigorous assessments by MCAA, aligning with global aviation standards already met by the aircraft through certifications from the FAA (US), EASA (Europe), ANAC (Brazil), CAAS (Singapore) and CAAC (China).
"We thank the Mongolia Civil Aviation Authority for their diligent assessment and confidence in Embraer's aircraft," said Martyn Holmes, Chief Commercial Officer of Embraer Commercial Aviation. "Certification paves the way for more business opportunities as we continue to expand our footprint in Mongolia. The E2 is ready to be a strategic asset for Mongolian carriers seeking to modernize their fleets and grow their networks. We look forward to supporting Mongolia's growing aviation market with these game-changing aircraft."
Embraer's presence in Mongolia began in 2018, when ERJ 145 entered service with Aero Mongolia. In 2019, Hunnu Air, the largest private airline in the country, added two E190s to its fleet, leveraging their efficiency and versatility to serve domestic and international routes between Mongolia and neighboring countries/regions. Most recently, in 2023, Hunnu Air launched direct services between Ulaanbaatar and Beijing Daxing using E-Jets. These milestones underscore Embraer's long-standing partnership with Mongolian airlines in advancing the nation's aviation capabilities.
