The Embraer 195 regional jet provides the
highest passenger capacity of the Embraer 170/190 family of aircraft. The
aircraft has a range of 1,800 miles. It has
a wide aisle, large seats and a passenger capacity of 108 to 118 depending on
the cabin layout providing a high degree of comfort. In addition, the aircraft
offers low operating costs and operational flexibility.
Since the 190/195 models are
of mainline aircraft size, many airlines will operate them this way fitting
them with a business class section and operating the aircraft themselves,
instead of having them flown by a regional airline partner.
The first flight of the E-195 was on December 7, 2004.
Interesting fact: the E195 is longer than the 737-400, -300, -500, -600 and -700. the E190 is longer than the 737-300, -500, -600 and -700.
