Ummmm, it may be automated but I hardly doubt its dramatically more advanced than the CRJ200. Aside from some minor changes to electrical, fire detection and slats its still a CRJ. While easy once learned, IMO, the automation made that a tough airplane. Also, if its your first transport category plane a lot of things are new - fire loops, bleed air, AC and DC electrical systems, etc. Personally the easiest planes I ever learned were the 757/767. The APU section is 3 pages long. However, I seem to recall the CRJ was like 40 pages long.
