I think it depends on whether you're interested in saving gas (CRJ700) or being a little more comfortable in the cabin (ERJ170). Just what I've heard, I haven't really looked into it.

Allow me to predict some future responses to the question "Which one is better?":
* the one that offers you the job
* the one that pays better
* the one that's operated by mainline
* the one that's operated by a union carrier
* my regional jet kicks butt and yours is rubbish

What'd I leave out?

The Beech 1900

Two VORs, DME, and a crappy wx radar.

What more do you need?

I would've loved to fly a 1900. I have some time in B200s, Citations, and Cheyennes, but that plane is certainly a legend in the ranks of the Metro, 727, and DC8.

I miss that big Ford Air Conditioner (i'm sorry VCM) on the right engine.

Long live the Saab.

 

[Kingairer]

The E-Jets are so far out of the CR7s league its not even close.

 

[WalterSobchak]

Ford vs Chevy......?

Who cares there is too many of both.

* better looking FA's

Not ours. We pay by the pound.

Dude, who cares? Which one pays more/has better QOL/works for you? That's the real question, get over it.

Personally, I think the CRJ's look sharper than the 135/145's. But I agree with Kingairer, there is no comparison between the CRJ700 and the E170/175's other then the number of seats. I've flown in the back of both cabins, and the CRJ SUCKED. I had to fly in one from EWR to CVG with a mother of a headwind. A 2 hour flight from pushback to shutdown, and I was sitting pretty far near the back. Noisy as all hell (although much more quiet then the Beech) and my sit wouldn't recline for crap and the leg room sucked. The 170/175's, while not as comfortable as the larger mainline birds are 10xx better than the comfort in the CRJ's and 145's. Colgan flew me to Houston on a 175 from PHL. While the flight was long, I was rather comfortable. Even fell asleep for a bit.

They are all crap. Stupid disposable airplanes.

 

[Baronman]

The one that pays the most!! The worst ones (IMO) are the larger ones that exploit our group the most.

Dude, Answering the question....They pay the same thing at my comapny due to seats...get over it.
