Brazil hits a new high

Subtitle: Thanks to Embraer, Brazil has become a major player in aerospace. In this special feature, we examine the challenges facing the country's champion as a new chief executive takes over from the iconic Mauricio Botelho. We also look at the growth of Brazil's SMEs, the outlook for defence spending, and the airline sector after Varig's demise.Talent spread : when Embraer was privatised it shed some gifted staff who now form the nucleus of Brazil's SME sector / Murdo Morrison. -- Survival of the fittest : Varig's decline sparked a scramble by airline to fill the flag carrier's routes and respond to the soaring demand for air travel in Brazil / Jackson Flores.
