WASHINGTON Sept 10 (Reuters) -

Brazil's Embraer ( ERJ ) said on Wednesday it has reached

a deal with U.S. budget carrier Avelo for 50 E195-E2 jets, in

the planemaker's first U.S. deal for the plane.

The announcement in Washington coincides with a major

gathering of aerospace leaders and comes at a time when the

Brazilian planemaker, the world's third largest, has been

lobbying the Trump administration to remove 10% tariffs, while

highlighting the reliance of U.S. airlines on its regional jets.
