When you do them all the time, is there any other way?

CRJ-200?

CRJ-900

I knew it had to be one of the CDJ's. I've seen 200's and 700's in person and there wasn't much difference.

Actually, there's a huge amount of differences between the 200 and 700, but the cockpit layouts are the same. The 700 and 900 are the ones that are pretty similiar, except the 900 is longer.

There's those muscle relaxers at it again - yeah, I was talking about the cockpits, not the whole plane. I worked 200's when I was with Pinnacle (even APU run certified) and loaded 700's when I was with Jetstream. The only one of the three cockpits I haven't been in is the 900.

I really gotta quit trying to post when the room is spinning...

The 900 cockpit is the same. Haha, PinchNickel.

Actually, no.

Now throw in the 705 for a bit of confusion. :d


(Also, the 200s have steam gauges as backup, don't they?)

Jetstream.

Alias PSA?

 

[Bone]

Actually, no.

Ummm, yes. LOL.

The CRJ has only one back up guage, the ISI. That would be the Integrated Standby Instrument. It's a combined ADI, ASI, Altimeter, and LOC/GS. The ISI in the 700/900 is glass, and the 200 is steam, as you said.

Alias PSA?

Not unless they were recently bought. They are a ground-ops contract service provider.

They should come up with more individual names more often...

One year after the renaming of the airline, it was relocated from Latrobe to Erie, Pennsylvania. On 26 September 1985, the airline affiliated itself with Piedmont Airlines. Jetstream International Airlines was acquired by Piedmont Airlines on 1 August 1986 and became a wholly owned subsidiary shortly after. Following the USAir acquisition of Piedmont in November 1987, JIA began operating as Allegheny Commuter from the USAir hub in Philadelphia. On 1 July 1988 JIA became a wholly owned subsidiary of USAir and began operating in the colors of US Air Express, later US Airways Express <sup id="cite_ref-FI_1-0" class="reference">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSA_Airlines#cite_note-FI-1</sup>

Didn't know for how long you were in the business as well. And I've only had two hours of sleep the night before, so that's another factor.
