Basically 2 BHO rates: one for Bombardier equipment, one for Embraer equipment. Keeps things simpler that way.

They realized they had to give us a little more, but the thing is so easy to fly that it shouldn't have to pay CRJ base.

If they type rate all of the brasilia pilots to switch off between the bro and the E175 then they can argue for BHO. If they're not going to do that then there's no correlation between the brasilia and the E175 other than they happen to be made by the same company. I'm pretty sure 777 pilots don't get "boeing BHO" based off of 737 rates.

It's a joke dude. Sarcasm...
read last paragraph I wrote, and what the rate (i humorously postulated) would actually be... maybe the joke will expose itself...
