The '''Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante''' (English: ''pioneer''<ref name = "centhist embraer">{{cite web |url = http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/emb-100-bandeirante.aspx#selection-687.0-687.19 |archive-url = https://archive.today/20150104060431/http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/emb-100-bandeirante.aspx#selection-687.0-687.19 |url-status = dead |archive-date = 4 January 2015 |title = EMB 100 Bandeirante |publisher = Embraer |quote = "''The moniker was symbolically loaded, harking back to the idea of the [[Bandeirantes]] (trailblazers) as pioneers of national integration.''"}}</ref>) is a Brazilian twin-[[turboprop]] light transport [[aircraft]] designed by [[Embraer]] for [[military]] and [[Civil aviation|civil]] use.

The EMB 110 was designed by the French engineer [[Max Holste]]; it had been designed in line with specifications issued by the [[Brazilian General Command for Aerospace Technology (CTA)|Brazilian Ministry of Aeronautics]] in 1965.<ref name="Pioneer p163-4">''Air International'' April 1978, pp. 163–164.</ref> The goal was to create a general purpose aircraft, suitable for both civilian and military roles with a low operational cost and high reliability. On 26 October 1968, the ''YV-95'' prototype performed its [[maiden flight]]; an additional two ''EMB 110'' development aircraft would follow along with an initial order for 80 transport aircraft for the [[Brazilian Air Force]] in the following year. [[Type certification]] was received from the Brazilian aviation authorities in late 1972, permitting its entry to service in April 1973 with the Brazilian airline company [[Transbrasil]].

Various customers in both the military and civilian sectors opted to procure the EMB 110 during its 22-year production run. Over one hundred examples would serve with the Brazilian Air Force, who would modernise numerous examples during the twenty-first century to permit their continued operation. The EMB 110, being customisable to suit various roles and operator requirements, was adapted for various specialist roles, including [[aerial observation]], [[maritime patrol aircraft|maritime patrol]], and [[search and rescue]] missions. During the 1970s, Embraer opted to design an enlarged derivative of the EMB 110, designated as the [[Embraer EMB 120 Brasilia|EMB 120 Brasilia]]; being faster, outfitted with a [[cabin pressurization|pressurized cabin]], and able to accommodate up to 30 passengers, Embraer opted to concentrate its resources on the new aircraft. As a result, production of the EMB 110 was terminated in 1990.

==Design and development== ===Background=== [[File:Embraer EMB-100 Bandeirante - first prototype (FAB YC-95).jpg|thumb|YC-95 first prototype (EMB-100) in [[Museu Aeroespacial|Aerospace Museum]], [[Rio de Janeiro]]]] The origins of the EMB 110 Bandeirante can be traced back to the issuing of a directive by the [[Brazilian General Command for Aerospace Technology (CTA)|Brazilian Ministry of Aeronautics]] in 1965; this called for the production of a transport aircraft for both civilian and military operations that would be reliable and possess low operating costs.{{cn|date=June 2024}} It was to be equipped with [[turboprop]] engines, a low-mounted wing, and have sufficient capacity to accommodate eight personnel; these stipulations had been drawn from a study of Brazilian commercial air traffic, and aimed to produce an aircraft that would be well suited to the existing airport infrastructure of the country at that time. The resulting specification that had been generated under the ''IPD-6504'' programme would greatly shape the future aircraft.<ref name="Pioneer p163-4"/><ref name = "centhist embraer"/>

Early work on what would become the EMB 110 actually predates the establishment of its manufacturer, [[Embraer]], which was founded in August 1969.{{cn|date=June 2024}} The lead designer was the French engineer Max Holste.<ref name="Pioneer p163-4"/> Construction of the prototype was supervised by the Brazilian [[aeronautical engineer]] Ozires Silva, who would also play a key role in founding and running of Embraer. The company was created to undertake the aircraft's commercialisation and serial production.<ref name = "busairnews 2018"/>

Prior to this point, a total of 110,000 project hours had been worked, producing 12,000 manufacturing drawings, supported by 22,000 hours of structural and aerodynamic calculations; an estimated 282,000 hours of aircraft manufacturing and tooling has also been expended.<ref name = "busairnews 2018"/> The prototype was officially presented before various civil and military officials along with members of the press at an event held four days later, during which its maiden flight was repeated.<ref name = "busairnews 2018">{{cite web |url = https://www.businessairnews.com/mag_story.html?ident=14613 |title = Embraer celebrates 50 years of the Bandeirante |publisher = businessairnews.com |date = 5 November 2018}}</ref> The positive performance of the prototype led to production of the aircraft, and thus the establishment of Embraer, being approved in mid-1969; the newly created company would assume responsibility for its production on 2 January 1970.<ref name = "centhist embraer"/>

===Redesign and quantity production=== [[File:Embraer EMB 110 Bandeirante at the Brazilian Aerospace Memorial 2023 001.jpg|thumb|right|''EMB 110 Bandeirante'' prototype at [[Memorial Aeroespacial Brasileiro]], [[São Jose dos Campos]]]] An additional pair of prototypes were constructed, which were designated ''EMB 100''.<ref>{{cite web |url = http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/emb-100-bandeirante.aspx |title = EMB 100 Bandeirante |publisher = Embraer Historical Center |access-date = 4 January 2015 |archive-url = https://archive.today/20150104060431/http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/emb-100-bandeirante.aspx |archive-date = 4 January 2015 |url-status = dead }}</ref> On 19 October 1969, the second prototype performed its first flight, while the third prototype followed on 29 June 1970. While these prototypes yielded positive test results, it was recognised that market conditions had shifted to the point where an eight-seat aircraft appeared to be less viable than it had previously appeared; thus, it was decided to quickly redesign the EMB 100 into the ''EMB 110 Bandeirante'', which featured several technological advances along with greater capacity.<ref name = "centhist embraer"/>

In May 1970, the programme was bolstered by the [[Brazilian Air Force]] (FAB) deciding to issue Embraer with an initial order for 80 production aircraft.<ref name = "centhist embraer"/> Near the end of 1972, the Bandeirante received its Brazilian [[Type certificate|airworthiness certificate]].<ref name="Pioneer p165"/> On 9 February 1973, the first delivery was made to FAB.<ref name="Pioneer p165">''Air International'' April 1978, p. 165.</ref><ref>{{cite web |url = http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/emb-110-bandeirante.aspx |title = EMB 110 Bandeirante |publisher = Embraer Historical Center |access-date = 4 January 2015 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20150923201841/http://www.centrohistoricoembraer.com.br/en-us/historiaaeronaves/pages/emb-110-bandeirante.aspx |archive-date = 23 September 2015 |url-status = dead }}</ref>

In a typical configuration, the EMB 110 seated between 15 and 21 passengers, and was flown by a pair of pilots.{{cn|date=June 2024}} Various configurations and customisations were possible in order to suit customers' diverse requirements and operating conditions. The ''EMB 110P1A/41'' model, which was furnished with seats for 18 passengers, had a length of {{convert|15.1|m}}, a height of {{convert|4.92|m}}, and a wingspan of {{convert|15.33|m}}.<ref name="JAWA88"/> It has a maximum cruising speed of {{cvt|411|km/h|kn}}, while its more economical cruising speed was {{cvt|341|km/h|kn}}, at which speed an effective range of {{cvt|1964|km|nmi}} can be achieved even while retaining reserve fuels for another 45 minutes of flight. The EMB 110 has a service ceiling of {{convert|21500|ft}}.<ref name="JAWA88"/>

During the 1970s, Embraer opted to build on the success of the EMB 110 by designing an enlarged derivative of the aircraft, designated as the [[Embraer EMB 120 Brasilia|EMB 120 Brasilia]]; beyond being large enough to accommodate up to 30 passengers, it was also faster and furnished with a [[cabin pressurization|pressurized cabin]].{{cn|date=June 2024}} All further development of the EMB 110 was halted by Embraer during the 1980s in order to concentrate its resources on the further development and production of the newer EMB 120 instead.

==Operational history== [[File:G-TABS2.JPG|thumb|EMB 110 registration G-TABS, operated by Skydrift, loading through the large cargo door]] Between 1968 and 1990, Embraer constructed a total of 494 aircraft in numerous configurations for a variety of roles. The [[Airliner|passenger model]] first flew on 9 August 1972 and entered commercial service on 16 April 1973 with the now defunct Brazilian airline company [[Transbrasil]]. On 8 July 1985, the first aircraft to be operated by the [[Ireland|Irish]] [[budget airline]] [[Ryanair]] in 1985 was 15-seat EMB 110; the airline continued to operate the type up until 1989.{{cn|date=June 2024}} By October 2018, 50 years after its first flight and 498 deliveries, about 150 EMB 110s were still operating at airlines, [[air taxi]]s, government entities, and [[air force]]s around the world.<ref>{{cite news |url = https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/air-transport/2018-10-26/embraers-bandeirante-marks-golden-jubilee-flight |title = Embraer's Bandeirante Marks Golden Jubilee of Flight |first = Chad |last = Trautvetter |date = 26 October 2018 |work = AIN online |access-date = 27 October 2018 |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20181027143057/https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/air-transport/2018-10-26/embraers-bandeirante-marks-golden-jubilee-flight |archive-date = 27 October 2018 |url-status = live }}</ref> Production of the type came to an end in 1990, the EMB 110 having been superseded by the [[Embraer EMB 120 Brasilia]], a derived successor.
