He's trolling y'all. Like the guys who call the CRJ/175 a "wide body".

I don't care for the WSCOD (145 series), but that's probably because the only three real, I want to be on the ground now emergencies I've had in my career, were on that airplane.

Bid whatever airplane will give you better quality of life, don't worry about the bells and whistles.

If the 145 is a "beginners jet", what's the Super 80 then? With it's 80's tech? The Airbus is a lot less work, but the 80 was more fun to fly.
