Back in my day we did IAH-BOI in the 145XR. Scheduled block was 4:05 there and 3:50 on the way back. I did lots of day turns there that were close to 9 hours block. I think the longest flight was EWR-OMA though as far as mileage goes. Riding from ATL to BIL on a 900 would be a dream compared to some of the flights CAL has XJT doing in 50-seat Embraers.
