The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has granted provisional type certification for Embraer's EMBRAER 170 aircraft.

The approval - which follows a similar move in November 2003 by the Brazilian airworthiness authority, Centro Tecnico Aerospacial (CTA) - will enable operators to begin crew training and route proving flights.

Final type certification is expected in early 2004.
