However, the device never operated commercially in Cape Verde, because in a year and a half it failed to obtain Aviation Agency certification Civil (AAC) .
At the end of 2022, the airline had complained about the regulator's delay and bureaucracy in releasing the plane and, at a certain point, in the middle of last year, professionals from Embraer were in Cape Verde to help with the process, but the plane never flew. .
According to AAC, it was Bestfly itself that requested the suspension of the process of including the aircraft model in its operational specifications.
As a result, the dispute remained open and the plane did not fly on commercial routes.
Now, according to the Newsaero website, the plane will be rented for three months to the airline Air Burkina, from Burkina Faso.
