Gear and flaps 9 at 250 could bail you out of just about anything.
ERJ-145 vs. CRJ-200

Having flown both, I agree the 145 trumps the 200 in everything except top speed (you know, for when you're on your last leg and have to make a commute). The 700/900 definitely trumps the 145 (including the XR).

Ha especially when we used to fly the 145 EP's out of Denver. Sorry we can only take 30 passengers cause we are weight restricted.

My haterade is largely focused on the -200. The -7/-9 are right proper airliners.

And yoke design. Seriously Embraer, stop it.

Curious to know the difference in operating costs/efficiency between the two... Mainly fuel consumption. Could anyone shed some light?

A few minutes matter when you're catching a commute. I'm just saying.

This. I'm all for block or better except when it's the go home leg. Depending on the commute hose few minutes can be the difference between getting to sleep in my own bed and another night in a crash pad.
Even if you're late?

Generally, it's the Man's airplane and I fly it their way.
But when I have Brand Z's passengers on board, and we're way, way late because of well, reasons, it's probably a good idea to ignore the Man's cost index program and fly fast.

Nah, if i can I'll make up the time wherever possible. No reason not to do everything I can in my power to help customers. Don't make me start putting asterisks by statements now!
Yokes… Giggle!
It's all about that stick, about that stick, no trimwheel.
That's enough witchcraftery outta you Derglas.

We use "target gate arrival" times and TCI/"Tactical Cost Index".
If you target gate arrival time is between 1202Z and 1213Z, you'll adjust your cost index to values corresponding to "TCI FAST", "TCI SLOW", "TCI NONE" in order to get into the window.
I don't know, I hate being late because ultimately, I'm going to start a chain reaction that's going to screw up my commute or my layover.

I'm probably commenting ironically...
as a forever commuter...I see your point but going .81 vs .78 has a lot less affect than getting an early push back and getting to the runway and getting to the gate.

OF COURSe they use "tactical" CI. What was your call sign in the service Derg?

Operation Clockwork lives on.
My personal favorite is when SmartCI tells me to slow down, to ensure that the next leg departs on time.
"erm, begging your pardon, sir..."
