Operational Context

Embraer 190 — twin-engine regional jet airliner

The Embraer 190 first flew in 2004 and entered service in 2005 as a larger variant within the E-Jet family. Unlike many earlier regional jets that were derived from smaller designs, the E190 was developed as part of a clean-sheet platform. Its four-abreast cabin eliminated the middle seat while providing more passenger space than previous regional aircraft.

Two General Electric CF34-10E turbofan engines producing approximately 18,500 pounds of thrust (82 kN) each power the aircraft. Cruise speed approaches Mach 0.82. Maximum takeoff weight exceeds 114,000 pounds (51,710 kg), with typical seating for about 98 to 114 passengers depending on configuration.

The E190 has been widely adopted by airlines around the world for routes that require more capacity than smaller regional jets but do not justify larger narrowbody aircraft. Its efficient performance and passenger-friendly cabin helped reshape the regional jet market. The aircraft remains a core member of Embraer’s commercial lineup.
