The only thing about the 145 was that it was a noisy piece of junk in the cockpit. Worst wind noise I've heard in a flight deck. Did they fix that with the 190's? I still see most pilots wearing big David Clarks which makes me believe that it is no Telex 750 flight deck.
The 145 is so loud because that's the same nose as the Brasilia... just flying 100+ knots faster!
