Where are the tip-tanks? There are supposed to be tip-tanks.

In a totally non-dorky question...and cause I don't quite have time to look it up right now, but does anyone know what avionics package the MRJ will have?

I hear tell it's going to be a hybrid of the Playstation 5 and the new Wii Pilot. Those sensor controllers are going to be tough to get used to. I see lots of flailing arms in the cockpit resulting in workman's comp injury claims.
…and that toilet. Is it vacuum-flush? Do they look down on the Brasilia too?
I predict it will mostly be a huge flop here in the US. The -70 is listed as pretty heavy, and the 90 is to big for scope clauses. The interior seems to be about the same size as a CRJ from the pictures. It still can only be three seats wide in first/business up front. Not to sure how this airplane will be received yet.

All grammar Nazi corrections aside. You're probably right, having said that though. Trans States has a 100 plane order (that may never come to fruition). And also SKYW has orders for it as well.
I prefer the C-Series. But it too unfortunately will probably suffer the same fate as your prediction.
just make sure you put the wristband on when you use it, Ninten I mean Mitsubishi is not responsible for windscreen damage

They are using the Pro Line Fusion.

As a pilot who considers himself of the non-dorky type, I can confirm that caring about what type of avionics the MRJ has qualifies you to enter the realm of dorky pilot.
Sorry to have to inform you of your transformation, I believe @Derg has a 12 step program to help with your issues.

Nah...The Pro Line Fusion is a spectacular avionics package and light years ahead of the Pro Line 4 I'm required to presently use. To my knowledge it may be the first transport category aircraft with the Pro Line Fusion package (just a guess, I'm just not personally aware of another).
The advances in avionics is quite impressive and I am delighted to see a top avionics package is actually being deployed in a new airframe.

Is SkyWest still betting the farm on the MRJ?
