Those 170's etc are great jets. I really enjoy flying in the back or em. Front is nice too.
Being a driver of one of these planes I agree with you. Something I would love to see defined is what is a Regional Jet. I fly from Philly to Dallas/Houston/Kansas City/St Louis/Minneapolis once a month at least. What is regional about that. Frankly I would have rather the US Air never had given those aircraft away. Air Canada is a fine example. There pilots make a ton more than I do flying the same aircraft.
