Embraer Adding $70M Maintenance Hangar at FW Airport
Embraer started work on its new Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul facility for commercial jets at Perot Field Alliance Airport in Fort Worth.
This new hangar is scheduled for opening by 2027. With the expanded infrastructure, Embraer’s capacity to serve E-Jets customers in the United States will grow by over 50%. The investment – expected to reach up to $70 million – is expected to create approximately 250 new skilled aviation jobs in Texas. In collaboration with the City of Fort Worth, Denton County, and the State of Texas, Embraer began operations at Alliance Airport in June at an existing hangar.
The new Fort Worth service center will be part of Embraer’s global network, which includes more than 80 Authorized Service Centers and 13 Embraer Owned Service Centers worldwide.
Since it was founded in 1969, Embraer has delivered more than 9,000 aircraft. On average, about every 10 seconds an aircraft manufactured by Embraer takes off somewhere in the world, transporting over 150 million passengers a year.
