Embraer EMB-145 Aircraft - photo wallpapers; Megawallpapers.org : The Embraer ERJ 145 family of regional jets are produced by Embraer, a Brazilian aerospace company. Family members include the ERJ 135, ERJ 140, ERJ 145, and Legacy. The ERJ 145 is the largest of the group. Each jet in the series is powered by two turbofan engines. The family's primary competition comes from the Canadair Regional Jet.  The ERJ 145 was launched at the Paris Airshow in 1989 as a stretched and turbofan-powered modification of the EMB 120 Brasilia. Key components of this design included: [br]Straight wing (with winglets)Wing-mounted enginesRange of 2500 km75% parts commonality with the EMB 120.By 1990, Embraer engineers found that the result of wind-tunnel [br]testing was safisfactory, and began considering a significantly [br]different design from the EMB 120. A modified design was proposed which [br]included: [br]22.3° swept wing (with winglet)Wing-mounted engineRange of 2500 km. [br] [br]The first flight of the ERJ 145 was on 11 August 1995, with the first delivery in December 1996 to ExpressJet Airlines (then the regional division of Continental Airlines). [br]ExpressJet is the largest operator of the ERJ 145, with 270 of the [br]nearly 1000 ERJ 145s in service. The second largest operator is American Eagle, with 206 ERJ 145 aircraft. Chautauqua Airlines also operates 95 ERJ 145s through its alliances with American Connection, Delta Connection, US Airways Express and United Express. By some accounts, the ERJ 145 has a cost of ownership of about $2,500,000 per year.[br]As of early 2005, 74 ERJ 140s had been built. Though the marketing [br]designation for this aircraft is ERJ 140LR, Embraer's internal [br]designation, and also that of FAA certification, is EMB 135KL.[br]The ERJ 140 was introduced in September of 1999, first flew on June 27, 2000 and entered commercial service in July of 2001. American Eagle Airlines, the regional jet subsidiary of American Airlines, operates the majority of the ERJ 140s built. Mesa Airlines, and Chautauqua Airlines also operate the ERJ 140.
