Embraer E190-E2 Wins Triple Type Certification From ANAC, FAA and EASA

• AirlineGeeks says the E190-E2 got type certificates from Brazil's ANAC, the FAA and EASA simultaneously, the first time a programme of the E2's complexity won three major authorities at once^[1]
• CEO Paulo Cesar de Souza e Silva said it came 'on schedule and on budget', with fuel burn, performance, noise and maintenance cost better than specified; test fleet logged over 2,000 flight hours plus 45,000 hours of lab testing^[1]
• Embraer's flight-test results put fuel burn 1.3 percent better than planned and 17.3 percent below the first-generation E190, and range from hot-and-high airports like Denver up 600 nm and from London City up more than 1,000 nm^[1]
• Widerøe, the largest regional airline in Scandinavia, was to receive the first aircraft and fly it in April; pilots of current E-Jets need only 2.5 days of training and no full-flight simulator to qualify on the E2^[1][3]

Notable features

• E190-E2: new ultra-high-bypass PW1900G engines, new wing and landing gear; 75 percent of systems new versus the E190^[1]
• Maintenance intervals 10,000 flight hours for basic checks with no calendar limit, the longest among single-aisle aircraft (Embraer)^[1]
• Dimensions and weights: length 36.25 m, wingspan 33.72 m, MTOW 56,400 kg, range 2,950 nmi, cruise Mach 0.78^[2]
• Seats: 97 in two classes or 106 in one at rollout; 114 maximum^[2][4]
