One thing to think about: I know the XJT ERJs aren't as sexy as a CRJ700 or 170 and aren't mainline either. But the XJT ERJs are the only RJ out there with TWO jumpseats. Can't even say that of the 737s or most 757s.

As far as weight restrictions: they do happen but are most definitely not the norm. Most guys here are pretty smart and can figure out a way to get 50 pax, their bags and two jumpseaters wherever we are going. The only time you really get hosed is when dispatch loads us up with gas for a distant alternate or a lot of holding.

As a former Norcal to IAH and IAH to ORD commuter, I second what other guys say about it being a whole 'nother job when you live in base. Good luck with commuting!
