The larger Embraer E-Jet series (E170/175/190/195) jets do somewhat compete with the Boeing 737 & Airbus A320 for the regional market. The E195 is smaller, and significantly cheaper than the 737. The E-Jet has a respectable safety record, and few major accidents.

The DC-10 is notable for having several major crashes due to design flaws, which significantly reduced sales of that aircraft.
