At XJ we press the TOGA buttons at the beginning of the before takeoff check, which is generally done at the beginning of the taxi. We also takeoff with our FDs on and just pitch at 2-3 degrees per second. Thankfully XJ actually gives us the benefit of the doubt in this manner.

Why only the 100 and 440 and not the 200? The CRJ440 is merely a designation for the 44 seat version, which is really a 200. It was created for NWA to circumnavigate scope when once upon a time there were restricions on 50 seaters.
