Embraer
Embraer E170/E175
Your answers
Field marks
- Underwing engines and a conventional low tailplane separate any E-Jet from a CRJ or ERJ, which mount their engines on the rear fuselage under a T-tail — the classic regional-jet split
- Squared-off cockpit window corners with a sharp notch give the nose a boxier look than the smoothly rounded A220 it is sometimes confused with at range
- Short, stubby fuselage relative to the wing — noticeably squatter than an E190/E195 from the same family
- Most E175s now wear enhanced, more sharply angled winglets; a nearly vertical plain-looking winglet usually marks an older airframe or an E170

Variant notes
- The E175 (31.68 m) is the dominant variant in service — the single most common regional jet in North America under 76-seat scope-clause contracts
- The shorter E170 (29.90 m) is comparatively rare today, retained by a handful of operators
- Aircraft built from 2014 on carry larger, more angled "enhanced" winglets (28.65 m span) that widen the wing versus the original vertical winglet (26.0 m span) still seen on older E170s and early E175s
