Boeing strikes aircraft deal with Brazil’s Embraer

Boeing has agreed a deal that will give it control of Embraer’s commercial jet business.

The proposed joint venture will give the US aerospace giant a significant stake in the market for smaller passenger planes.

The need for a deal has recently become more pressing since its European rival, Airbus, took control of Bombardier’s C-Series regional jet programme.
