The Embraer 190 is a member of the successful Embraer 170/190 family of twin-engine, single aisle, commercial aircraft comprising Embraer 170, 175, 190 and 195 models.
The Embraer 170/190 project was initiated in 1999 with $850 million of funds allocated by Embraer and up to 16 multinational partners. The first flight occurred in 2002 and the airliner entered service in March 2004.
Embraer estimates that the entire program could generate $15 billion in revenues in the next 10 years.
The Embraer 190 regional jet is intended for longer range and an increased passenger capacity over early models.
The aircraft has a range of 2,200 nautical miles cruising at Mach 0.82 and carrying around 98 passengers. It has a wide aisle, large seats, and a passenger capacity of 98 to 106 depending on the cabin layout providing a high degree of comfort.
On 30 August 2005, the Brazilian Aviation Authority awarded type certification for the Embraer 190 jetliner which was expected to enter service in the United States with the launch customer JetBlue later in 2005. On 2 September 2005, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) of the United States issued the type certification for the EMB 190 jetliner.
