I'm sure there are... When I was on the Brasilia I really didn't care either way about the airplane I was flying, perhaps because I'd already got the SJS out of my system many years prior. But the pay difference after year one is very substantial, and the trips are easier. As with a couple of years ago, there will be a lot of Brasilia guys in the CRJ classes when hiring resumes.
