Embraer aircraft

The 2 Embraer types you are most likely to see on a tracker, with the ICAO code each one broadcasts, how far it flies and how to tell it apart from its siblings.

The 2 Embraer types covered here span a wide range of missions. The longest-legged is the Embraer E190 at 4,537 km, and the shortest is the Embraer E175 at 3,700 km, a spread of roughly 837 km between the two ends of the same manufacturer's catalogue.

All 2 are narrowbodies. First flights run from 2003 to 2004, so this list covers several design generations rather than one. The ICAO type code in each row is exactly what the aircraft broadcasts, so it is what you will see when you click one on the live map.

Capacity is the other useful dividing line in this selection: it runs from about 76 to 114 seats, while published range averages 4,118 km. Cruise figures span 829–829 km/h. These types occupy a comparatively focused part of the commercial market.

The narrower-airframe side contains Embraer E175 (E175) and Embraer E190 (E190). This model-by-model inventory is important on a tracker because the designator, not the marketing family name, is the machine-readable identity. For example, E175 resolves specifically to Embraer E175, while E190 resolves to Embraer E190.

Four useful range checkpoints in the Embraer selection are Embraer E175 at 3,700 km and Embraer E190 at 4,537 km. These are published reference ranges rather than promises for every flight: payload, winds, reserves and the operator's cabin layout all change the practical mission. The comparison is best used to separate families and likely route roles, then the individual type page supplies dimensions, speed, capacity and historical context.

What the covered range shows

  • Range leader: Embraer E190, with a published range of 4,537 km.
  • Cabin span: published capacities across these types run from about 76 to 114 passengers.
  • Design generations: first-flight years run from 2003 to 2004.
  • Portfolio mix: 2 narrowbody and 0 widebody types in this selection.

Embraer aircraft: Common questions

How many Embraer aircraft types are there?

We cover 2 Embraer types in commercial service, from the Embraer E175 to the Embraer E190. The manufacturer has built many more over its history; these are the ones you are most likely to see on a tracker today.

Which Embraer aircraft has the longest range?

The Embraer E190 at approximately 4,537 km, which is enough for medium-haul and regional routes.

What is the ICAO type code for an Embraer aircraft?

Each type has its own four-character designator, such as E190 for the Embraer E190. It is the code used in flight plans and on radar, and it is what appears when you select an aircraft on a live map.

How do I recognise an Embraer aircraft in the air?

Start with size: the Embraer E190 and the Embraer E175 sit at opposite ends of this maker's range, so engine count and wing span narrow it down fast. Embraer types are less common overhead than the Boeing and Airbus families, which is itself a useful clue. All 2 types here list the ICAO code you will see on a tracker.
