Do I think that because I fly a 170 and the engines are under the wings, that I am somehow more special than a CRJ guy...nope.
You should try bidding to fly the 190. I know when I had a rough day, I'd realize things could always be worse after seeing a smaller 170 passing by and I'd just feel bad for those people. I don't even know how the guys do it in the little corporate 145 jet.
