150 seat C series

THe E145 is marketed as an RJ
THe E-Jet series is not.

Agree. However, I keep hearing guys from different carriers (and a couple on here, actually, though I think they've been tossed on the "Ban Wagon" by now) that if it's Bombarder or Embraer, it's a regional jet. They tend to get confused when I ask "What if Boeing made a 50 seat jet?"

The E170 is a regional jet. And on paper, it's basically a CRJ with wing mounted engines. It's Embraer's answer to the CRJ7/9. The 190 however with the 100 seats is considered a mainline airplane.

I think the future market will be in the 100-120 seat range. Mitsubishi's even making a 737 killer!

Air Canada flies RJs??

I know Air Canada DID fly mainline CRJ-200s years ago, yet Jazz was flying them at the same time. I'm pretty sure that didn't last too long and now all the CRJs are with Jazz.

Air Canada operates 15 EMB-175's.

Nah, honestly it'll be a mainline plane (unless something drastic happens). It'll be a 737 payscale.

Famous last words.
