ERIEYE vs. EGIS
I reverted the edit replacing the ERIEYE radar for "Erieye Ground Interface Segment". I found no substantive reference to EGIS online, other than an acronym website. Ericsson's website also makes no reference to it, having its main page to the radar still calling it the "ERIEYE". My best guess EGIS is a sub-system of the ERIEYE system, linking airborne radar data to ground receivers.--Dali-Llama 19:32, 15 October 2005 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:EMB R-99A.jpg
Image:EMB R-99A.jpg is being used on this article.

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

The image is from the E-99, the R-99 has an antenna on the belly-side of the fuselage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.82.155.131 (talk) 16:03, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

Mexican units
Embraer's web site indicates specificaly that they delivered one EMB 145 AEW&C and two EMB 145 MP to Mexico. Why do you quote different models?: BatteryIncluded (talk) 13:50, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Air France Flight 447
The Brazilian Air Forced used a Embraer R-99A for SAR operations regarding the Air France Flight 447. Is this notable for Embraer R-99? --77.4.50.208 (talk) 09:33, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
 * I would say not notable as they were just doing the job they were designed for. MilborneOne (talk) 09:40, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

E-99
This is mentioned on Operators section but is not on Variants. (??) --Jor70 (talk) 14:17, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

I think its an R-99B. Someone keeps adding that every once in a while, but I've seen no sources to back up its use. - BilCat (talk) 16:15, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Flight Attendant?
I assume this is incorrect, and the third crewman will be operating the on board radar? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.121.7.90 (talk) 13:11, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
 * I suspect that the reference to a flight attendant was carried over from the specs of the passenger versions. SV1XV (talk) 13:48, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
