Yup.
Keep in mind that -900 flying is rare in many bases. Aside from OOE and a few reserve trips I haven't touched a 900 my entire time here. Most of my flying is on the -700.
The -200 is a dog on a hot day or fully loaded, the climate control system is a joke, and it doesn't have FADEC. The -700 is a much stronger performer with improved systems including FADEC, and the -900 is a stretched 700 with a forward lav, and a second FMS CDU if you're lucky.
But they're all CRJs. They may land differently and perform differently, but the experience is basically the same across all 3 variants.
(Edit: just checked PBS and they put a DL -900 trip out of SFO on my schedule. Since when are we doing DL trips out of SFO?)
