Planes sold

“São José dos Campos (SP), 10 de Janeiro de 2008 - Quebrado mais um recorde pela Empresa Brasileira de Aeronáutica (Embraer) no ano de 2007. A companhia divulgou ontem ter registrado o maior número de aviões entregues em sua história no período de um ano. Foram 169 jatos numa previsão estimada entre 165 e 170 unidades.”

Another record broken by the Brazilian Aeronautics Company (Embraer) in 2007.

The company said yesterday that it registered the largest number of planes delivered in its history in a year’s time. One-hundred and sixty-nine jets were delivered, from an estimated 165-170 units.

So said the article today in Brazil’s equivalent to the WSJ.

Imagine my pleasant surprise to see the article written by a neighbor, who played ball a lot with our boys.
