Its backlog grew by $500 million from the previous quarter, Embraer said in a securities filing.

Embraer delivered 43 aircraft in the third quarter, compared with 33 in the year-ago period, totaling 105 aircraft delivered year-to-date.

Earlier on Thursday, the planemaker said that SkyWest had ordered 19 of its E175 jets for $1.1 billion, with deliveries expected to start in the final quarter of 2024.

The new aircraft will be flown by United Airlines under a capacity purchase agreement (CPA), Embraer said.
