Embraer's new 'E2 Enhanced Take Off System,' designed to automate takeoffs and increase payload, has sparked debate among pilots who question its necessity and potential impact on their role.
Since it was founded in 1969, Embraer has delivered more than 8,000 aircraft and, about every 10 seconds, one of their planes takes off somewhere worldwide, transporting over 145 million passengers a year. But travellers and pilots are now keeping a dubious eye on Embraer after the aeroplane manufacturer unveiled its “E2 Enhanced Take Off System”.
“This system will be able to perform the takeoff ‘perfectly’ meaning you can carry more fuel/payload, I suspect it will be used just like Autoland ... only when it’s actually needed. If it means I don’t have to sit on the ground pissing about with weights and making numbers work then I’m all for it.
