The Embraer E-Jet family (E170/E175/E190/E195) is a twin-engine regional jet with two seats on each side of the aisle, widely used by regional and mainline airlines.

In plain terms, it's a jet (turbofan) multi-engine airplane. Certification: Type certificated (factory design approved by the FAA).

There are 40 aircraft of this exact model variant on the US register, and about 159 Embraer aircraft with closely related model designations, out of 317,717 registered aircraft in total.

An aircraft's age on its own says little about how safe it is: airliners are maintained on strict, regulator-approved schedules, and inspections become more detailed as aircraft get older. More about the Embraer E-Jet (E170/E175/E190/E195) →
