Take a look at the newest form of the diease
I think I'm going to hurl.
:yeahthat:
Don't you remember what I told you when we all got together that night? The management that you're used to at other companies doesn't exist in this business. Airline managers aren't concerned about profits or building a successful business. They're only concerned about ego. The biggest ego boost they can get won't come from increasing profits. No, it will come from busting the mighty unions. They view unions as foes to be defeated. And when they're successful, it's a huge ego boost for them. If it costs the company billions and drives them into bankruptcy, then they're ok with that. So long as they feed their ego and beat us down, they're happy. People think I'm exaggerating about this stuff, but it's really the complete, honest truth.

The 7 and 9 are actually different airframes than the 200. The 200 is the only frame of a 605 that is stretched.
They built the 7 from the ground up, closely relating it to the 200 (some systems, but same cockpit minus some improvements) and then stretched that for the 9 and 1000.

Glad you're entertained, Steve, but it's the truth. I speak from a position of experience, having spent years across the table from these guys. What is your experience with airline management?

From a ramper's stand point, I wonder how often it would get bulked out. Doesn't look like they stretched the pit by more then 3 or 4 feet from a 700. To hell with winter loads on that thing.

I think its Ugly. The 700 is the only one of the series that I think looks decent.

Dude let's get some unducted Garrets on that thing, kinda like the engines they put on some MD-80's to test back in the 1980's. Nothing says Metroliner like the sound of a giant, pissed off mosquito, and Garret has that number on lock down!

Welp. Looks like the 1000 has evac slides!

Slides
Does it?
I'm just wondering why it would since it looks like it is low enough to not be required to have them.
I read somewhere that the CRJ-700/900 are angled down partly for this reason.
The EMB-135/140/145 are one inch below the height of 6'0" that would require a slide, if I remember correctly.
The threshold of the main cabin door in this CRJ1000 picture just doesn't look like it's that high off the ground.

Re: Slides
Eh, maybe. I only said it looks like it doesn't because it doesn't have that "angled" down look.
Maybe Bomba just "lowered" the thing so it doesn't have the really odd angeled appearance. While still not having evac slides.

Durex XS condoms. Not at all to be confused with Magnum XL's
www.buildagurl.com when you really, really want to build a "girlbot" in your parents garage.
KY Jelly. For when you can afford to purchase or finance a "buildagurl."
And lastly. By coa787. Who is probably camped out at the end rwy 6L at KCLE looking for "go arounds."
Because they're hasn't been one KCLE for well over a year!
Don'tcha know!

CLE ATC
There hasn't been one for over a year because the controllers at CLE believe six miles spacing is tight and you'd better slow to final approach speed if you're coming up on five miles in trail on final, to a plane that flies the same approach speed you do.
And two downwind legs flown at 170 knots culminating in a 25 mile final that -- oh, sorry I forgot this is the CRJ1000 thread.

No Maxie, it doesn't have slides!
Door has same height from ground as the -900.You might have to initiate a mass exodus and form your own alter ego company to do it at the current rate..
You could call it HoJet!
