Default E190f/e195f

Recently I saw where Embraer is offering a freighter conversation to their E190s and E195s. I was just curious if anyone has heard if any of the major US cargo companies are showing any interest in this.

They won’t fit an AAA/AAY container.

Probably wildly fuel inefficient relative to a turboprop on the routes UPS/FEDEX use feeders on.

They’ve got at least one taker.

If I recall correctly, CRJ200’s are flying freight now. I have no idea on the burn to volume numbers, but would the E-Jet have a lot better cost per cube?

I would bet it does. The Ejet burns around 4000 lbs per hour and the 190/195 should be able to carry more than double what a 200 can.
