Embraer E-Jet family

During the 1990s, the Brazilian aerospace manufacturer Embraer had introduced the ERJ family, its first jet-powered regional jet.Eden 2016, p. 206. As demand for the ERJ series proved strong even early on, the company decided that it could not rely on one family of aircraft alone and examined its options for producing a complementary regional jet, including designs that would be larger and more advanced than its preceding aircraft.Eden 2016, pp. 208-209.{{cite web |url=https://leehamnews.com/2014/10/20/e-jet-the-project-that-shaped-embraer/ |title=E-Jet, the project that shaped Embraer |publisher=leehamnews.com |first=Bjorn |last=Fehrm |date=20 November 2014}}

During March 1997, Embraer made its first public disclosure that it was studying a new 70-seat aircraft, which was initially referred to as the EMB 170; this reveal was issued concurrently with the announcement of the development of the ERJ 135.{{cite news |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/embraer-seeks-paris-show-launchfor-new-37-seat-regional-120/ |last1=Walker |first1=Karen |last2=Lopez |first2=Ramon |date=12 March 1997 |title=Embraer seeks Paris show launch for new 37-seat regional turbofan |journal=Flight International |publisher=Reed Business Information |volume=151 |issue=4565 |pages=4}} As originally conceived, the EMB 170 was to feature a new wing and larger-diameter fuselage mated to the nose and cockpit of the ERJ 145.{{cite news |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/continental-express-is-eager-for-small-regional-jet-5562/ |date=25 June 1997 |title=Paris report '97: Continental Express is eager for small regional jet |journal=Flight International |publisher=Reed Business Information |volume=151 |issue=4579 |pages=10 }} The proposed derivative would have cost $450 million to develop.{{cite news |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/reversal-of-fortunes-10475/ |title=Reversal of fortunes |date=2 July 1997 |first=Max |last=Kingsley-Jones |work=Flight International}}

While Alenia, Aerospatiale and British Aerospace through AI(R) were studying the Airjet 70 based on the ATR 42/72 fuselage for a {{cvt|2,200|km|nmi mi}} range, AI(R) and Embraer were studying a joint development of a 70-seater jet since their separate projects were not yet launched.{{cite news |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/pdfarchive/view/1997/1997%20-%201652.html |title=AI(R) and Embraer start talks on joint 70-seat regional-jet |work=Flight International |date=25 June 1997}}

In February 1999, Embraer announced it had abandoned the derivative approach in favour of an all-new design.{{cite news |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/new-by-design-137792/ |title=New by design |date=23 October 2001 |work=Flight International |first=Paul |last=Lewis }} On 14 June 1999, the E-Jet family was formally launched at the Paris Air Show,{{cite web |url=http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/embraer-170.aspx |title=Embraer 170 |publisher=Embraer Historical Center |access-date=2 May 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160510092807/http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/embraer-170.aspx |archive-date=10 May 2016 |url-status=dead }} initially using the twin designations ERJ-170 and ERJ-190; these were subsequently changed to Embraer 170 and Embraer 190 respectively. The launch customers for the airliner were the French airline Régional, which placed ten orders and five options for the E170, and the Swiss airline Crossair, which had ordered 30 E170s and 30 E190s.{{cite web |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100203181350/http://www.flug-revue.rotor.com/FRTypen/FRERJ170.htm |title=Embraer ERJ-170 |publisher=Flug Revue |archive-date=3 February 2010 |url-status=dead |url=http://www.flug-revue.rotor.com/FRTypen/FRERJ170.htm }}

During July 2000, production of components for the construction of both the prototype and test airframes began. Difficulties with the advanced avionics selected for the aircraft, supplied by the American company Honeywell, led to delays in the development schedule; originally, the first flight had been set to take place during 2000.Eden 2016, p. 209. On 29 October 2001, the first prototype PP-XJE was rolled out at São José dos Campos, Brazil.

On 19 February 2002, the first prototype performed its maiden flight, marking the beginning of a multi-year flight test campaign involving a total of six prototypes.{{cite journal |last1=English |first1=Malcolm |title=Brazilian Beauty: The Embraer 170 |journal=Farnborough International 2002 Official Souvenir Programme |date=July 2002 |pages=32–37}} In May 2002, the aircraft was displayed to the public at the Regional Airline Association convention. During that same year, full-rate production of the E-Jet commenced; this activity was centred around a recently-completed factory built by Embraer at its São José dos Campos base.{{cite journal |last1=Kingsley-Jones |first1=Max |last2=Wastnage |first2=Justin |date=28 August 2001 |title=World Airliners: Regional Realities |journal=Flight International |volume=160 |issue=4795 |pages=49 |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/FlightPDFArchive/2003/2003%20-%202469.PDF}}

After a positive response from the airline community, Embraer launched the E175, which stretched the fuselage of the E170 by {{Convert|1.78|m|ft}}.{{Cite news |url=https://airwaysmag.com/airchive/embraer-e-jet-family/ |title=Flashback Friday: The Embraer E-Jet Family |last=Linares |first=Luis |date=14 April 2017 |work=Airways Magazine |access-date=11 November 2017 |language=en-US |archive-date=11 November 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171111210337/https://airwaysmag.com/airchive/embraer-e-jet-family/ |url-status=dead }} During June 2003, the first flight of the E175 took place. In April 2003, jetBlue placed an order for 100 Embraer 190s, the deliveries of which commenced two years later.{{cite web |url=http://aviationweek.com/commercial-aviation/jetblue-ceo-laments-embraer-190-costs |title=jetBlue CEO Laments Embraer 190 Costs |publisher=AWIN First |first=Jens |last=Flottau |date=22 April 2013 |access-date=12 November 2018 |archive-date=10 October 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181010095515/http://aviationweek.com/commercial-aviation/jetblue-ceo-laments-embraer-190-costs |url-status=dead }}

Following several delays in the certification process, the E170 received type certification from the civil aviation authorities of Brazil, Europe and the United States in February 2004.{{cite web |url=http://www.aerospace-technology.com/projects/embraer_170/ |title=Embraer 170 |date=15 June 2011 |publisher=Aerospace-technology.com |access-date=16 October 2012}}{{Unreliable source?|reason=domain on WP:BLACKLIST|date=June 2016}}

{{main|Embraer E-Jet E2 family}}

In November 2011, Embraer announced that it would develop revamped versions of the E-Jet to be called the E-Jet E2 family. The new jets would feature improved engines that would be more fuel efficient and take advantage of new technologies.{{cite web |title=Embraer Commits to re-engined E-Jets |url=http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/embraer-commits-to-re-engined-e-jets-364603/ |date=10 November 2011 |work=Flight Global}} Beyond the new engines, the E2 family would also feature new wings, improved avionics, and other improvements to the aircraft. The move came amid a period of high global fuel costs and better positions Embraer as competitors introduced new and more fuel efficient jets, including the Mitsubishi Regional Jet.{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=cftpDgAAQBAJ&q=E-Jet+success&pg=PR2-IA1 |title=Embraer E-Jets E2: Building on Success |last1=Arvai |first1=Ernest S. |last2=Schonland |first2=Addison M. |date=10 November 2016 |publisher=AirInsight |isbn=9781539631583 |language=en}} The new aircraft family also includes a much larger variant, the E195-E2 capable of carrying between 120 and 146 passengers. This jet better positions Embraer against the competing Airbus A220 aircraft. The PW1000G was previously selected for use on competing aircraft.{{fact|date=October 2024}}

In January 2013, Embraer selected the Pratt & Whitney PW1000G geared turbofan engine to power the E2 family.{{cite web |url=http://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/2013-01-08/embraer-re-engine-e-jets-geared-turbofan |title=Embraer To Re-engine E-Jets with Geared Turbofan |last=Polek |first=Gregory |date=8 January 2013 |publisher=AINonline |access-date=8 January 2013 |archive-date=21 August 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210821223606/https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/2013-01-08/embraer-re-engine-e-jets-geared-turbofan |url-status=dead }}{{cite news |url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-prattwhitney-embraer-idUSBRE90712E20130108 |title=Pratt & Whitney wins contract for Embraer's new E-Jets |date=8 January 2013 |publisher=Reuters |access-date=8 January 2013}}

The Embraer E-Jet family is composed of two main commercial families and a business jet variant. The smaller E170 and E175 make up the base model aircraft, while the E190 and E195 are stretched versions, being powered by different engines and furnished with larger wing, horizontal stabilizer, and landing gear structures. From the onset, the E-Jet had been designed to be stretched. The E170 and E175 share 95% commonality, as do the E190 and E195; the two families share near 89% commonality, maintaining identical fuselage cross-sections and avionics fitouts. The E190 and E195 possess capacities similar to the initial versions of the McDonnell Douglas DC-9 and Boeing 737. All members of the E-Jet family are available in baseline, long range (LR), and advanced range (AR) models, the latter being intended for long routes with limited passenger numbers.Eden 2016, p. 211.

The smaller members of the E-Jet family are powered by the General Electric CF34-8E turbofan engine, each capable of generating up to {{cvt|14,200|lbf|kN}} of thrust, while the stretched aircraft are outfitted with the more powerful General Electric CF34-10E, capable of producing a maximum of {{cvt|20,000|lbf|kN}} thrust. These engines have been designed to minimise noise and emission outputs, exceeding the requirements established by the International Civil Aviation Organization; the relatively low acoustic signature has enabled the E-Jet to be operated from airports that have imposed strict noise restrictions, such as London City Airport.{{cite web |url=http://www.londoncityairport.com/content/pdf/Types%20of%20Aircraft_and_Concessions.pdf |title=List of permitted aircraft on LCY |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140801132204/http://www.londoncityairport.com/content/pdf/Types%20of%20Aircraft_and_Concessions.pdf |archive-date=1 August 2014}} The type is also equipped with winglets that reduce fuel burn and thereby improve operational efficiency.

The E-Jet family is equipped with a fly-by-wire flight control system. The flight deck is furnished with the Honeywell Primus Epic Electronic flight instrument system (EFIS) suite and has been designed to facilitate a common type rating, enabling flight crews to be readily moved between different members of the family without the need for any retraining/recertifying and providing greater flexibility to operators.Eden 2016, pp. 209-210. Early operations of the E-Jet were frequently troubled by avionics issues; by September 2008, Honeywell had issued software updates that sought to rectify the encountered issues.{{cite web |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/honeywell-says-e-jet-software-issue-resolved/82655.article |title=Honeywell says E-Jet software issue resolved |publisher=flightglobal.com |first=Mary |last=Kirby |date=3 September 2008}}

The main cabin is configured with four-abreast seating (2+2) as standard, and features a "double-bubble" design that Embraer has purpose-developed for its commercial passenger jets to provide stand-up headroom. The dimensions of the cabin were intentionally comparable to the narrowbody airliners of Airbus and Boeing to permit greater comfort levels than most regional aircraft. Considerable attention to detail was reportedly paid by Embraer to elevating the type's passenger appeal. Many operators have chosen to outfit their aircraft with amenities such as Wi-Fi and at-seat power outlets. The windows of the E-Jet family are relatively large at {{cvt|185|sqin|m2}} in comparison to most contemporary airliners, such as the {{cvt|175|sqin|m2}} windows of the Boeing 787.{{Cite web |url=https://www.alaskaair.com/content/travel-info/our-aircraft/e175 |title=Embraer 175 Two-Class Aircraft Information |publisher=Alaska Airlines |access-date=26 March 2018 |language=en}}

United and SkyWest have begun retrofitting their jointly operated E175 aircraft with larger "wheels first" overhead bins which can accommodate up to an extra 29 bags, an 80 percent increase in space. The airlines will modify 50 aircraft with the new bins in 2024, and if successful, plan to retrofit more than 150 aircraft by the end of 2026.{{Cite press release |date=2024-03-26 |title=United Becomes First Airline to Add New, Larger Overhead Bins to Embraer E175 Aircraft |url=https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/united-becomes-first-airline-to-add-new-larger-overhead-bins-to-embraer-e175-aircraft-302099459.html |access-date=2024-04-26 |work=United Airlines |language=en |via=PR Newswire}}{{Cite news |date=2024-03-26 |title=United Airlines adds larger overhead bins to SkyWest flights |url=https://ca.news.yahoo.com/united-airlines-adds-larger-overhead-124214942.html |access-date=2024-04-26 |work=UPI |language=en-CA |via=Yahoo News}}

The E170 is the smallest aircraft in the E-Jet family and was the first to enter revenue service in March 2004. As of 2017, the E170 went out of production.{{Cite news|url=https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/skywest-orders-another-20-e-jets-441717/|title=SkyWest orders another 20 E-Jets|last=Hemmerdinger|first=Jon|date=2 October 2017|work=Flightglobal.com|access-date=10 November 2017|language=en-GB}} The Embraer 170 typically seats around 72 passengers in a typical single class configuration, 66 in a dual class configuration, and up to 78 in a high-density configuration. The E170 directly competed with the Bombardier CRJ700 and loosely with the turboprop Bombardier Q400.{{fact|date=October 2024}}

There are four variants of the E170, the E170STD, E170LR, E170SU and E170SE. The E170STD is the base-line airframe, the E170LR increased its range by having a higher max take off weight (MTOW). The E170SU and E170SE are both based on the E170LR but limits its passenger number to 76 and 70 due to scope clauses.

The jet is powered with General Electric CF34-8E engines of 14,200 pounds (62.28 kN) thrust each.{{fact|date=October 2024}}

The E175 is a slightly stretched version of the E170 and first entered revenue service with launch customer Air Canada in July 2005. The Embraer 175 typically seats around 78 passengers in a typical single-class configuration, 76 in a dual-class configuration, and up to 88 in a high-density configuration. Like the E170, it is powered by General Electric CF34-8E engines of 14,200 pounds-force (62.28 kN) of thrust each. It competed with the Bombardier CRJ900 in the market segment previously occupied by the earlier BAe 146 and Fokker 70. {{As of|2024}}, it is the only aircraft currently produced in this market segment.{{fact|date=October 2024}}

The E175 was initially equipped with the same style of winglets as the rest of the E-Jet family. Starting in 2014, the winglets were made wider and more angled. Those winglets and other changes to the aircraft over time have improved efficiency. Embraer said that aircraft produced after 2017 consume 6.4% less fuel than original E175 aircraft.{{Cite press release|last=Slattery |first=John |date=2017-05-17 |title=First production E175 with fuel burn improvements |url=https://www.embraercommercialaviation.com/first-production-e175-fuel-burn-improvements/ |access-date=2024-03-27 |website=Embraer |language=en-US}} The angled winglets increase the wingspan from 26 m (85 ft 4 in) to 28.65 m (93 ft 11 in).{{Cite web |url=https://www.embraercommercialaviation.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Embraer_spec_E175_web-EN.pdf |title=E175 |publisher=Embraer Commercial Aviation}} This winglet change was only made available to the E175 and no other models in the family.{{Cite web |last=Hemmerdinger |first=Jon |title=Embraer details E-Jet efficiency improvements |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/embraer-details-e-jet-efficiency-improvements/111065.article |date=13 September 2013 |website=Flight Global |language=en}}

There are four different variants of the E175 airframe, E175STD, E175LR, E175SU and E175SC. The E175STD (standard) is the base-line version of the E175, the E175LR (long range) increased its range by having a higher max take off weight (MTOW) and max ramp weight. The E175SU is based on the E175LR but limits its max passenger seating capacity to 76 due to American regional market scope clause limitations. In late 2017, Embraer announced the E175SC (special configuration), officially designated as ERJ 170-200 LL, limited to 70 seats like the E170 to take advantage of the E175 performance improvements but still comply with US airline scope clauses limiting operators to 70 seats. Embraer is marketing the E175SC as a replacement for the older 70-seat Bombardier CRJ700 with better efficiency and a larger first class.{{Cite news |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/embraer-targets-crj700-operators-with-new-e175-sc-441489/ |title=Embraer targets CRJ700 operators with new E175-SC |last=Hemmerdinger |first=Jon |date=26 September 2017 |work=Flightglobal}}

In 2018, a new E175 had a value of US$27 million, projected to fall to US$3–8 million 13 years later due to their concentration in the US with more than 450 in service out of 560, with Republic and SkyWest operating over 120 each, Compass 35 and Envoy Air 90, after the similar experience with the CRJ200 and ERJ 145 demonstrates the limited remarketing opportunities.{{Cite news |url=http://www.aircraftvaluenews.com/e175-concentration-starts-to-impact-values/ |title=E175 Concentration Starts to Impact Values |publisher=Aircraft Value News |date=12 November 2018}}

On 11 November 2018, Air Astana Flight 1388 on a flight from Alverca Airbase, Portugal, to Almaty suffered severe control issues including flipping over and diving sharply. The crew activated the direct mode for flight controls which allowed sufficient control to make an emergency landing on the third attempt at Beja Airbase in Portugal with serious damage sustained during these high-G maneuvers. It was subsequently written-off and broken up. The investigation revealed that the aileron cables were installed incorrectly, causing reversal of aileron controls. The investigation blamed the manufacturer of the airplane for the poorly written maintenance instructions, the supervising authorities for lack of oversight over the maintenance crew, who lacked the skill to perform the maintenance, and the flight crew for failing to notice the condition during pre-flight control checks.{{Cite web|title=Air Astana Flight 1388|url=https://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=20181111-0|access-date=3 November 2021|website=Aviation Safety Network}}
