Are you kidding me? The ERJ 140's are constantly weight restricted and always departing with a few pax and a jumpseating pilot at the gate... just yesterday a Chataqua 140 had to drop 4 pax (and me) from ORF-STL. Luckily I still managed to get a seat in the back somehow.I was told by an ERJ captain that the airplane has a landing weight issue. In the limited time I have flown the CRJ200 I have never had to leave pax or jumpseater's behind on any flight... even lengthy legs such as PHL-MCI with an alternate and restricted to FL250 due to an inoperative pack.
