"The Embraer 170 aircraft is the first member of a new family of commercial jets currently under development at Embraer. The Embraer 170 was launched in June 1999 and took its maiden flight in February 2002.
The aircraft is of low wing design with podded engines mounted below the wings. The wings of the Embraer 170 are fitted with winglets, which reduced the drag of the tip vortex and provide increased lift and improved efficiency of the wing.
The aircraft has an all-digital cockpit. The lightweight modular-architecture avionics suite includes a Honeywell Primus Epic electronic flight and information system (EFIS) with five liquid crystal color displays. The flight controls are fly-by-wire technology (computer-controlled, electrical primary flight controls) with the exception of the ailerons.
The interior cabin is designed by C&D Interiors and seats 70 passengers in a four abreast configuration with an 81cm (32in) seat pitch.
The Embraer 170 is fitted with two under-wing-mounted engines, type CF34-8E, rated at 62.28kN. The engines and engine nacelles are supplied by General Electric. The engines are controlled by a Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC), a fully redundant, computerized management system, which optimizes the engine performance at each phase of the flight, resulting in reduced fuel consumption and maintenance costs.
