A School for Fighter Pilots
The Tucano was developed by modifying the highly successful Brazilian Embraer EMB 312 aircraft. However, to meet the demanding requirements of the RAF, the machine was equipped with a more powerful engine and a significantly strengthened airframe. The aircraft excelled in superb handling, unrivaled cockpit visibility, and flight characteristics that perfectly prepared future pilots for the transition to fast jet aircraft. Although primarily designed for training, its dynamic appearance and excellent aerobatic capabilities made it a popular participant in many air shows across Europe.
