What's it like to fly the CRJ?
The only experience I have in a Canadair product was getting my SIC type in a CL-30 (Challenger 300 corporate jet.) That was a blast and a half...13,000 lbs of thrust powering a 32,000-lb airplane (MGW 39,000, but we were flying light.) We saw 5,500 fpm climbing through 15,000' and the CA told me that 6,500 fpm is doable.
I was just curious, for the CRJ drivers around here. What's that airplane like to fly? I've only ever ridden in the back of a CRJ-200 twice, and both times the airplane kinda seemed like it didn't really want to climb. I was surprised at the low deck angle on departure, even out of a sea-level airport on a standard day. How different are the -700s and -900s?
Just trying to learn, that's all.
