ERJ 145 family members are well suited for high frequency use and operate up to 3,000 hours per year. The unique family design offers airlines 95% parts and systems commonality and the same crew type-rating.
This high commonality also reduces spare parts requirements, permits the use of the same ground support equipment, and allows for standardized training and maintenance procedures, which translate into reduced costs, better parts logistics efficiency, and higher profitability.
Built for lower-demand markets, the ERJ 135 is an ideal step up from small capacity turboprops. Superior field performance, higher speed, and greater range all contribute to reaching new markets and creating more seat miles.
The ERJ 140 delivers the benefits of the ERJ 135 with a nominal increase in seat capacity, allowing operators to grow routes with manageable ASK/ASM increments and full fleet commonality benefits.
The first member of the family, the 50-seat ERJ 145 delivers the versatility needed for building a regional network - it can be utilized for turboprop replacement, new market development, frequency building, and right-sizing.
The XR is Embraer's response to market demand for longer flights. The jet delivers a 2,000 nm range that opens new opportunities to expand an existing network and bypass hub operations with a manageable seat count and ERJ family commonality-based savings.
