Hi John,
Thanks for the response. Yes we're part 91 and we have already gone through the channels to get the various material we needed to develop our SOPs. As it stands we do have a set of SOPs that we are happy with. My main interest at this point is techniques used by people in the trenches to save fuel, maximize engine and prop life. Being that ASA and skywest probably have the most experience operating the aircraft i was figuring that i'd be able to get some ideas from some of the guys on what worked and what didn't. E.g. what kinda T6 settings were being used during cruise and climbs. What Np settings seemed to work best 100% to cruise, 100% to 12k then 90%, etc.. I no way was i asking for any material to be sent to me, etc.

Kizzle, as a few have stated, the best way to go about this is to contact Embraer to get checklists and operational manuals from them, then adapt those to your use. I'm assuming you're part 91. Don't expect anything useful from message boards. I have lots of time in Brakillyas, but it was so long ago I'm probably not of much help. G' luck.
