Embraer E195-E2 in factory demo paint scheme - in Port Moresby

Arriving under cover of darkness at 22:45 approx was Embraer E195-E2 in the factory demo paint scheme "profit hunter"

Can this be a potential for Air Niugini to replace the aging Fokker 70/100 fleet, even the B737 ?

Plunging the already financially broke country into further debt.

My guess is that it's on its way to the Avalon Airshow starting next week.

Demo flight today in POM for PX
Performance is better than Fokker 70/100 and the Embraer can operate from any airstrip Fokkers service. Haul 20% or more pax for 30% less operating costs
With the signing of an accord between Australia and PNG to assist PX, and with a large number now operating in Aus; line and heavy maintenance with Alliance would make sense.
All they have to do is find the $$$
PX Corporate department has released a press statement

There is only 1 E2 operating in Australia. The E2 has a different engine, landing gear, cockpit display’s etc compared to the E1.
