Embraer 175 (short wing)
The Embraer E175 standard short-wing variant uses a smaller wing than the long-wing version, tailored for airlines outside the specific US regional scope-clause weight restrictions that shaped the long-wing model's design. It's the most numerous member of Embraer's original E-Jet family worldwide, seating around 76 to 88 passengers on regional routes across dozens of countries. Its twin under-wing engines and swept wing give it a more mainline-airliner-like look than older tail-mounted-engine regional jets. It remains one of the best-selling regional jets ever built, connecting smaller cities to major hub airports globally.
