  Embraer 170 Commercial Jetliner - Aerospace Technology
The Embraer 170 aircraft is the first member of a new family of commercial jets currently under development at Embraer.
Embraer is responsible for the design and development of the aircraft, manufacture of the forward fuselage, fuselage centre section II, wing-to-fuselage fairings, wing assembly and whole aircraft integration.
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.

 Embraer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
By the end of the 1980s, government investments on the aerospace industry were largely reduced, due to the Constitution of 1988, which extinguished many forms of support to the industry, and due to the lack of interest in the defense area caused by the end of the Cold War.
On July, 1999, Embraer announced the development of a new family of aircraft: the E-Jets Series, comprising of the Embraer 170, 175, 190 and 195 aircraft.
The inaugural flight of the first model, the Embraer 170, was made on February 19, 2002.

 Embraer 170 Certification Feb 20?
Delays in the certification of the Embraer 170, along with weak demand from airlines, led Embraer to cut its forecast for annual deliveries on four occasions last year.
Curado also said Embraer expected to deliver two of the new jets to US Airways this month and denied the airline's big order was at risk due to its financial problems.
US Airways, which ordered 85 Embraer 170 jets shortly after emerging from bankruptcy early last year, posted a smaller fourth quarter net loss on Friday but said it was behind in its plan for achieving sustained profitability.

 AIN Online September 2003: Embraer 170 soldiers on toward November approval   (Site not responding. Last check: )
First acknowledged by Embraer CEO Mauricio Botelho during June’s Paris Air Show, the certification delay marked at least the third such setback for the Embraer 170, originally scheduled for regulatory approvals by the end of last year.
In Paris, Embraer said it had hoped to employ a so-called “two-phase” approach, under which it would certify the airplane in July without Cat II landing capability, autothrottle and wind-shear detection, then add the extras for a subsequent approval in November.
Although on the surface Embraer appears the only choice for a family of jets spanning that entire capacity range, political considerations could carry as much weight as any in the final decision, particularly in a deal that could involve four airlines with vastly different agendas.

Affonso told AIN that the “entirely new 170/190 program is the basis of Embraer’s aircraft development for the next 10 to 15 years.” Launched at the 1999 Paris Air Show, the 170/190 line comprises the 170, 175, 190 and 195 mid-capacity jets, seating respectively 70, 78, 98 and 108 passengers with a 32-inch seat pitch.
Embraer’s revised plan is to deliver 132 aircraft this year and 136 next year, down from 136 and 140, respectively.
Affonso told AIN that the 170’s static structural-testing campaign “successfully surpassed its most critical phase and was concluded within the schedule established for both Embraer and its risk-sharing partners with only minor complementary tests remaining.” He emphasized that the completion of the wing-fuselage static structural tests is a “milestone of particular importance.
