Embraer 195

The Embraer E195 is the largest member of Embraer's original E-Jet family, a Brazilian-built regional jet line that reshaped short and medium-haul flying for many airlines. Seating up to around 120 passengers, it sits between traditional smaller regional jets and full-size narrow-body airliners. Its twin engines are mounted under the wing in a layout similar to larger jets, rather than the tail-mounted engines common on older regional aircraft. The E195's success helped establish Embraer as the world's third-largest commercial aircraft manufacturer.

In CatchFlights

In CatchFlights the Embraer 195 starts as a Uncommon catch. The tier is an editorial judgement of how special a sighting of this type is. The more often you catch it, the closer it moves to Common for you.

A catch counts for the manufacturer Embraer, the E-Jet family and the model in your collection, and the daily Type Rating quiz asks about the types of each family.
