Boeing snob.The XR is probably "adequately powered." The rest...not so much.
Incidentally, folks I interviewed with who waited for the CRJ instead of accepting the Bro in Freznikistan are still waiting.
I stand corrected, what's it like to fly the ERJ-140/145?

Yeah, and at acceleration height it's push nose down "Flaps one Flaps up level change," instead of "Acceleration height...one thousand one, one thousand two..."I don't trust any airplane that can't climb at least at M0.80.

Welcome to TacoJet! Look me up if you're ever in Chicago. We're pretty easy to spot being tired and pathetic looking.

Oh and if you need any study materials, send me a PM. I'll hook you up.

Wait until you try the 747-8. Thing climbs like a bat outta hell....if you're into that sort of thing

You can relax and unwind, work on that stud tan (lol) and get all the things done that you need to do (make a damn list), before you head off for training. Good deal!
Welcome to the party. Make sure you count how many of your classmates drop like flies. There are all kinds of stories out there of 25 people starting class, 15 showing up, 8 finishing. Chautauqua's the bastard child at Republic. They lean towards knowing how to build the airplane instead of flying it. Not so much I hear lately, but it's still fairly prevalent compared to the 170.
Any questions, shoot me a PM. I'm based down in CMH. And Falcon's right, those poor ORD guys get beat...

Ah, say hi to that sim for me, and don't be surprised when the control loading quits.

I think the 145 is a POS.
1. bicycle yoke
2. EVERYTHING generates a master caution
3. poor performance
4. very noisy- you'll need ANR headsets
5. crappy autopilot
the automatic anti-ice is good though...

See, I've heard this complaint a lot about the Embraers, but I don't buy the argument. I can see it being a matter of personal preference, but all things being equal...
The Concorde - one of the coolest and most beautiful airplanes to ever grace the sky - has the "Ram's Horn" yoke:
Therefore I'm forced to conclude that you guys (who complain about it) are all the ones who are wrong.
(In all seriousness, I've heard they can be a PITA in crosswinds.)

the ram head yoke is awesome...no problem in x-winds as far as I'm concerned...don't even know why that could be...See, I've heard this complaint a lot about the Embraers, but I don't buy the argument. I can see it being a matter of personal preference, but all things being equal...

You are absolutely right, and I humbly apologize to all past and presently surviving aircraft in the Concorde fleet for this grave indiscretion.
Someone was saying in another forum that crosswind corrections can get tiring when applying roll input one-handed towards your throttle hand (i.e. rolling right from the left seat). It doesn't seem like it would be that bad but then again I've never flown one. Might depend on the height and proportions of the pilot as well. Seems like the Concorde rams-horn yoke was curved while the yokes on the Hawkers and Embraers are straight, so I don't know if that makes it worse.
