Gotta love when that gear comes down. It literally sounds like the end of the world is near. Oh, and those brakes. I wonder if triple nickel is still around.

*Crying* stop making fun of my plane, i came off a 172 right to this and this is all i have to keep my frail ego inflated.Gotta love when that gear comes down. It literally sounds like the end of the world is near. Oh, and those brakes. I wonder if triple nickel is still around.
Listening to -200 pilots jaggoff about their stupid pos turning them into superpilots makes me yearn for the days of blowing by them on the parallel inside the marker. No autopilot, no fa, no bathroom, no water, and no damn idea what altitude capturing was because the tprop couldn't even come with that option

Where to begin...
So you're not proud of your 1900 roots? It's better than the San Antonio Sewer Pipe and the Junkstream.
Sounds a heck of a better than the Rube Goldberg sounds coming from an Airbus when it gets going.
I come from the land of metroliners, jetstreams, chieftains and Banderantes. Ya'll can kiss my shiny black ass as the CRJ is far superior to what the commuter, whoops, regional model used to be!

Now hold up!
I'd take the metro over the 1900 any day!
For all that bombardier got wrong with the -200, the CL30/35 is a completely different machine. It's a great flying machine with amazing performance. It's the best bang for your buck in it's the market. The Globals are nice also. Their short field performance is amazing and it can have ref speeds in the low 90kt range allowing it to virtually get into anywhere. Bombadier's new product have already shown that they will be performers. I'm excited to see how Delta uses them!

And there's beta (Pratt) and then there's BETA (Garrett taxiing around swinging 110" of prop at no less than 68% RPM at all times).

Not to be disputatious or pedantic, but beta isn't the same thing as reverse. Beta is anything less than flight idle. Reverse is, well, you know, reverse. On the aforementioned mighty 331, for example, one could be in beta and produce zero reverse thrust (but a lot of noise).

Don't forget the SAAB. It's amazing how many people I run across that started their career in the SAAB. No see, no pee, no tea.I come from the land of metroliners, jetstreams, chieftains and Banderantes.

Not really, the ERJ stays cool, has FADEC, the thrust reversers actually work, climbs slightly better, has windows that arent by your knee. About the only thing that isnt better are the avionics. Overall Id much rather fly a 145 over a 200. The 700/900 fixed a lot of the issues the 200 had.

Jumpseat is more comfortable on the CRJ. Still a torture device, but way better than the POS on the ERJ.
