And to the above post about RJ's being much simpler systems-wise than a DC-8, 707, or 727..... of course they are. So is a 777, 747-400, 767, 757, 737, 717, A330, A340, A380, A320, and every other modern transport category airplane. Automation advances in 50 years.... enough to eliminate a crew-member.
Reminded me of this picture...
